Don't we already have two code bases? I mean, all the IMAP commands are implemented separately depending on which DB is choosen at compile time. I don't see the difference between this, and choosing to embed the commands in the server via triggers and other server side stored procedures. I would think we could / would still have two separate files for implementing database commands, the mysql one would be much larger than the pgsql most of the code was moved to the database creation script. I think using stored procedures on the server are an advantage in many ways.
