What comes to mind is
* Stored Procedures
* Purging results (cancelling queries)
* Sending and receiving large blobs

But if this should become the official version, more thought should go 
into the API, or we should build a "fully" compatible API.

By "fully", I mean as much as possible - there are some very odd 
behavior regarding passing values to stored procedures in the original 
code that shouldn't be replicated.
