I'd like to remember you all dpkg/experimental is a lot faster now... from about 14sec to 3sec here. Well using the database would be about 1sec but I wouldn't recommend to a distribution to use a wrapper (just like I don't recommend installing the library in your system, not because it's unstable but because a bad user usage could lead to unexpected results for the system). Patch dpkg directly instead.
