I do something similar, although wrapped in a module so that each database has a module that manages it, but some people are agressively opposed to global variables and wouldn't like my approach at all. But it was a fairly vague statement so...
As to the 'obvious mistakes' I'm not sure how many mistakes are obvious when you don't know the answer and druid at least shows signs that he's investigating these problems himself. We've had posters in the past that have said "I can't do this, please write the code for me and I need it by tomorrow".
