Well trained monkey is (I think) the phrase that I last heard for Apps DBA... I think it has something to do with the fact (as I have seen it semi first hand) that you need to be able to use your four extremities productively, as well as your prehensile tail.

"We have decided to go in and actively go after our installed base and tell them that this is a better way to [run Oracle applications]," said Jeff Henley, Oracle's chief financial officer, speaking to financial analysts in New York yesterday. "We will put the sales guys on it and invest heavily in capacity."
