I know. That's exactly what my library does, and I assume all the 
others listed; `args...` there is a placeholder for binded 
arguments (the actual call might look something like 
`db.query("CALL proc(?, ?)", arg, arg2);` or similar). But CALL 
works the same way as UPDATE, SELECT, INSERT, etc., you can do it 
in sql without needing a special api function to use it.

Every generic DB library I have ever seen abstracts placeholder 
arguments and most do prepared statements, which also abstract 
such things gnerically. I didn't mention it in my example because 
EVERYONE (except like universally recognized garbage like php4 
lol, but I'll even exclude it because its api isn't generic) does 
it and I assumed that'd be common knowledge.
