I don't have sufficient experience with SQL to be able to
really make a judgement here, but is there a case for a std.sql
or std.db that would provide a uniform D interface to the
arbitrary DB of choice?
Each database engine has a unique distinguishing features that
make this engine interesting. (for example, different
implementations of transactions - SQL standard does not describe
the SQL transactions precisely enough)
So, I do not know is it possible to make a universal interface.
And why it may need in real life?
