Yes you are right, it would not be used in all cases. The alternative is to
have an entire extra set of adaptors for this functionality alone, this
sertanly has its disadvantages as well.

This functionality would provide a base that would allow many nice features:
Cross db schema managment (of curse)
Automatic form generation (based on the datatypes)
ORM
...

I would be very happy to contribute in this area, I was thinking an
implementation of the mentioned methods for MySQL. But if you already have
written a proof of concept I won't do that.
