Yes, but there is requirement to install in order to use ob-sql.el __with :engine set to non-free option__. So, I can envision that someone who decided to use ob-sql.el and considering between free and non-free engine may prefer non-free one. Of course, it is not very strong argument, but the boundaries are fuzzy in this area. > For maintenance reasons and to add session support, I would suggest that > using sql.el instead of re-inventing this wheel would be a better > outcome.

That's what we usually do - just use whatever REPL is available for a given ob-* language. Just a question of someone sending a patch. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
