That is the idea, and I believe some are doing it.

If there is a problem connecting to Oracle via ODBC, that should be
addressed at the ODBC layer.  Once ODBC is working, HDBC should work
fine.

I have no Oracle databases under my mangement or available to me, so I
unfortunately can't test.

I would certainly happily reference anyone's native Oracle HDBC
backend too, though!
