Description

Review what are we getting from extending JDBC_PING2 in the first place.

This is very problematic because the protocol inherits a lot of SQL-specific properties from JDBC_PING2, insert_single_sql, jndi names, datasources, etc. that are NOT usable.

The price we pay is fragility and tight coupling to a JGroups version.

Research direction

Start by reading the current JDBC_PING2 extension and tracing its use of insert_single_sql, JNDI names, and datasources. Done means reaching a maintainer-backed decision on whether the inheritance should remain and recording the resulting scope; the issue names no files or tests.
