I'm open to suggestions here.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but I don't see how that would help much.
The $dbh that Class::DBI expects to work with has extra features that a
normal DBI $dbh doesn't have. Whether they're obtained through subclassing
or by delegating surely doesn't really matter. Either way we can't just
take a plain old $dbh and work with it.

We could of course alter it, but that would cause problems if the $dbh
we were given was already a non-DBI one...

What are the main use cases here? What are the top 5 (say) scenarios
where people want to be able to supply their own $dbh, or share one with
other things?
