implement.

My initial idea involves passing an object that is a subclass of 
PDOStatement into PDO:query as a second parameter, then all that 
would be needed to get it to return a custom result set would be 
something like this:

read the last item over there.
Marcus (IIRC) is planning on making this less clumsy as right now you 
have to repeatedly specifiy the statement class you want AFAIK.

Ah thank you, I understand that PDO is still under development, I 
thought I may as well mention this before the cement dries so to speak.

Good to see that this has already been thought of and an implementation 
already exists (even if it's not ideal).
