I thought a bit about this. It's kind of a hen-egg problem: nobody uses the 
module (because it lacks features), so I am not motivated to work on it (and 
this it won't receive new features). We also discussed this internally, and we 
hope to break that cycle. Actually, I could envision that omlibdbi could become 
the feature-richest database plugin. Assuming libdbi is not a performance 
problem (what I think), we could consolidate all those specialized db plugins 
into a single one of superior quality.

You'll see work going on in the 7.3.x branch (to be started soon).
