If you check the story, Dr. Hipp was already very knowledgeable on database technology before starting SQLite. And SQLite version 2 (the one I started working with, dunno about v1) was already famous everywhere (on the right circles), even if at the time there was no .NET wrappers.

Actually, at least since Ubuntu 8.04, SQLite is compiled with -DSQLITE_ENABLE_COLUMN_METADATA -DSQLITE_ENABLE_FTS3, and a quick check on the library shows that the required sqlite3_column_origin_name() and sqlite3_column_origin_name16() functions are there. On my [K]Ubuntu 8.04 the version is 3.4.2-2, but on 8.10 is 3.5.9-3 (the -2 and -3 are the distro subversioning). This to say that you are probably guessing wrong and should carry this subject to the .Net package authors, as all this has nothing to do with SQLite itself (the SQLite "team", has nothing to do with .NET wrappers or how distros package it).
