Thanks for adding these insights — really valuable points from practical experience. 😊

Completely agree that using the native PostgreSQL driver makes much more sense for Lakebase compared to the Databricks JDBC driver, especially for tools like DBeaver and pgAdmin. The OAuth token expiry limitation is something many people only discover after setup, so your explanation around native Postgres roles is super helpful.

Also appreciate the note on sslmode=require and the PKIX/certificate handling. Corporate trust store issues can definitely be tricky, and your suggestion about importing the CA certificate into the Java trust store is a great long-term fix for managed environments.

Thanks again for sharing such detailed observations!
