Oh.  With all due respect, this is really a gross hack.  :-)

This isn't something I can see most TMDA/SQL users wanting to do.
Eventually, we really should provide some SQL-append capability
similar to CONFIRM_APPEND (because as I mentioned, every user needs
this).  I'm ignorant of how much effort this would take, so it can
wait until after 1.0 if you want.  Partial SQL support in 1.0 is
certainly better than none at all.
