I tool "alongside" to mean like how apr-util is "alongside" apr. Not a
separate TLP.

But then again, 2.0 combines cuz the "alongside" was too much overhead.

Regardless: I'm with Nick: the tools don't sound very useful. I'd use
native tools for any database. I'd probably script something in Python for
encoding type stuffs.

I see apr as a *library* for C programs. Definite, clear need for this.

I do not believe we need to create cmdline tools, which can be fulfilled
with any number of alternatives.
