But it's still C - the columns have to be transformed from JSON to SQL in
C. i admit - it's _not_ hard to do. All the pieces are there for iterating
over the JSON fields and for easy generation of strings (including proper
SQL escaping), it's just tedious, which means that in order to get me to do
it, i need far more motivation.


Trivia: fossil's Blob struct (which is how we create dynamic strings)
showed me that C can be (almost) as easy to use as C++, and was what
convinced me to give C another try after having abandoned it in 1995 in
favour of higher-level languages.
