I added the pdo_odbc.db2_instance_name to the RFC including 2 options
which is up to you to decide for with the relevant patches included.

I agree that a lot of them are controversial, and perhaps its a good
idea to start flesh them out for our users and fellow contributors
already now. I began a draft based on your 7.3 RFC for 7.4[1]. Ps I
took the liberty of adding your name as the RFC author.
