that shouldn't be so hard. the sql command was originally a SQLObject
thing which called sqlobject-admin, when TG did the switch someone
duplicated the functionality and it's very independent of the core. in
fact the code you are looking for is very trivial, honestly I have
never used it but I believe the SA sql is far less develop than it's
SO counterpart. Anyway here is the code, U can extract it with a
couple of minutes of work.
