I'm writing a patch which try to set ~sql-product~ when editing sql src block.

Here is the code:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun org-babel-edit-prep:sql (info)
  "Set `sql-product' in Org edit buffer.
Set `sql-product' in Org edit buffer according to the
corresponding :engine source block header argument."
  (let ((product (cdr (assq :engine (nth 2 info)))))
    (sql-set-product product)))
#+end_src

But =ob-sql.el= source code hardcoded ~:engine~ names which some are not matched
with ~sql-product-alist~ in =sql-mode=. For example =:engine postgresql=, but 
it's
~postgres~ in ~sql-product-alist~.

For now, I have two solutions:

1. write an adapter function which translate ~:engine~ header argument value 
into
   ~sql-product-alist~ product names. This is a safe way, which will not
   incompatiable with old Org document.

2. modify source code hardcoded ~:engine~ names (also need to update Org
   document), this has a minor advantage is *consistance*.

WDYT?

BTW, about writing an adapter function to translate names. I want to hear some
suggestion about use which method. Writing an hash map or assoc list etc?

Regards
