Not sure how real world useful this is. What I have seen more is a
need to build tree style structures. This would require knowing the
FK's or allowing the user to specify the tree structure they want.
This sort of thing is supported by C#'s LINQ.
Thinking about it, combined by grouping all of the arrays by some id
column, one could maybe create tree structures with less overhead.
But like I said ideally PDO would know about FKs and use those to
build the tree structure automagically.
Also since you seem to be in a PDO feature addition frenzy. Two
features I would like to see:
1) lazy connect
2) driver independent DSN support
