I've been working on a more or less complete rewrite of the mysql-native module.

I don't have any specific comments. Just want to say that Steve Teale originally wrote the module as part of his std.database efforts. I think it would be nice if any redesign done would aim for eventual phobos inclusion.

I don't agree that this library should aim for any inclusion in phobos. I plan on exposing the MySQL API as closely as possible and a couple of higher level convenience functions. The std.database would have to be database agnostic, and should be a library interfacing to mysql-native, postgres etc.

We should contact the author of ddbc for input: https://github.com/buggins/ddbc

No, you are wrong. We need both low-level and high-level API,
Low-level API like mysql-native driver should present a specific database as much as possible and provide access to all database features. High-level API like ORM HibernateD must provide common API for all databases, but it can't present all database specific features due database differences. So, I can use low-level API if I need access to all database specific features. I can use high-level API if I need common API for all databases.
