Further along with Spring

Probably, it should not surprise anyone (it surprised me, but then I'm novice), the fact that Spring almost anticipates what I would want of it next. No, not really. Well, for the most part it does, but one thing more I wanted was: when several threads make a call to transactional service, and the transaction isolation is set to be readonly, I was expecting that Spring will reuse same DB connection in both threads (like most grown-up EJB servers would). It wouldn't. Sigh. Maybe it's just me, I admit to reading at most 5 pages of Spring documentation so far :)
