Package needs DB Types for Language

[Paolo F Cantoni]

When Reverse Engineering RDBMSs, EA adds the Database Technology to the Tables, Views, Procedures and Functions it imports.  For a variety of reasons, principally based on the UML Profile EA uses for this purpose, it imports all the DB objects into the same package.

Accordingly, we have adopted the convention of naming the package after the database on the server.  Similarly, we have created a higher level package for the server itself - giving it the appropriate name.

However, we'd like to designate the RDBMS technology at both the database and server package level.  However, we can't because EA ASSUMES (self-inconsistently) that only code elements can be held in a package.

We can jury rig a solution by adding RDBMS types to the set of Code Languages - but this is both kludgy and wrong.

At the package level, EA should allow the Language Drop down to support BOTH Code and Database values.
