Huh??  I am running sqlite with GIS on my laptop right now.  It wasn't THAT 
hard to install.  Yes, the documentation could use some cleanup, but it got 
me through the tutorial okay and gives me a platform to learn GIS on.
  I really support the idea of sqlite and postgres in the core and moving 
everything else outside.  
(Not that my support counts for much.)
