The 'database scheme definition' vs 'standard query language' (or 'data manipulation language') argument make sense to me -- although it would be great if you had pointers to references.
Either way, I'm willing to reverse my position on creating database abstraction functions for create or altering SQL tables -- but not to build SELECT/UPDATE/INSERT queries.
Great news. Perhaps we should contact the people handling the different DBMS ports. ? Also, this might make sqllite more easily implemented. I believe it doesn't even have an alter mechanism, and you need to use application code to recreate tables and the like. http://code.jenseng.com/db/
