Im quite happy to add this feature (patches welcome)

bear in mind that not everyone knows sql nor trackers database structure 
intimately so it cannot replace tracker's Dbus API which is focused 
around easy to use methods for first class objects.

Also we will have at least two backends (mysql and sqlite - which is 
coming along nicely and can be seen in cvs) and that any sql you submit 
should avoid non-standard propriety extensions.
