Why not change "mainWork" such, that it accepts a Class ref directly,
rather than the canonical name?

Maybe even simpler would be to have it accept a SQL ref and just pass
it: new SQLite3()

There is certainly more than one way to Rome.

You might want to add "protected", so that derived classes even in
other packages can still call it.  "protected" is more permissive than 
default access.
