DB connection part of API or a separate Plugin?

[IDragonfire]

@RobodudeMC

Ebean was fine at best, I had issues with it so often, there needs to be an API included in sponge that allows a universal database access, this would be incredibly useful to programmers.

@RobodudeMC

I did find quite a few plugins that used it and I even used it at some points but it was a very inelegant solution.

First…

@IDragonfire

The problem is, that not much people are familiar with the Persistence Annotations …

Second:
Can you describe your problems?
Thanks!
Maybe in the ebean thread:

Java Persistence API / Ebean Server Support?

I used Ebean Server of Bukkit a lot. (Java Persistence) Is a similar system planned? Ebean? Hibernate?
