YMMV. it is actualy you who break things. e.g. if u dont rely much on specific SQldialect notions, or better, on specific SQL notions, you'r settled. i've made dbcook over SA and ever since the team have forgotten about what SQL is, except some veeeeery tricky things which has to be SQL aware, as they rely on DB-structure being what it is. But dialects... only come to play when something is not supported, and my way of handling this so far is to avoid using any stuff that is not supported everywhere - workaround on lowe or higher level, including model refactoring.
