[std.database]

Further generic question. (Yes, I am listening to the answers too)

If some underlying databases don't support the features that our chosen 
interface requires, do we attempt to synthesize them - presumably at cost 
to performance, or do we just throw a compile-time exception that 
basically tells the user to use a lower interface and code it themself?

It's important that we establish such boundaries. Otherwise we'll never 
ever have an alpha version of 0.1.

To express a personal opinion, then as a first pass we should do 
something that is at about the same level as JDBC but without the 
concessions to DBs like Postgres that have fancy SQL types.

When we have decided on an interface, we can always go forward, but going 
back is embarrassing.
