Hey all,

I wanted to check and see if a patch would be considered (before I spend
any time on it) to replace this:

return getattr(__import__('sqlalchemy.databases.%s' %
self.drivername).databases, self.drivername)

from sqlalchemy.engine.url

with something using the pkg_resources plugin stuff from setuptools?

I ask, because I'm trying to write a new database engine that's a fairly
heavy write. (this is the NDB API thing that doesn't use SQL) I'm not
touching any code so far that isn't in a single file in the databases
dir, but there are a couple of us who are trying to work on the project
together. I'd really like to just version control that one file so we
don't have to branch the whole sqlalchemy source. I also think it might
be nice to be able to distribute a sqlalchemy database engine without
having to get it committed to the trunk.

HOWEVER - I recognize that no one else might care about either of these
things. I don't think it will be a hard patch or one that will be
disruptive to the current way of doing things, but I wanted to check if
it would be rejected out of hand before I bothered....?

Thanks!
Monty
