I think we can blame the vision of the new schema and multi library
support for most of this. Due to this vision, they started to take
advantage of the fact that SQLite was an embedded file based database
and not an out of process server based database. The actual SQL is very
similar in MySQL and SQLite as long as you don't use SQLite or MySQL
specific functions. I use some specific functions in my plugins but I
don't think this is the case in in the standard SBS code.
