Will this information be specific to the driver or to PCO, or is it 
possible to use other software for decryption? Will the API have a way 
to decrypt data based on that information (that is, without passing a 
DSN to the constructor)? How about producing a human-readable DSN of the 
relevant and/or all used settings to solve both of these cases?
