   > Why is the common _make_serializable method required?
   
   For the reason described above - comon "airflow standard" returned output of 
DBApiHook.  All the DBApiHook implementations return some kind of tuple-like 
output. Some of them also return some kind of description of metadata - 
sometimes embedded in the returned Row data as extra row content, sometimes not 
(there is no common standard for that).
   
   And the `make_serializable" returns a standard output that is, well, 
serializable, in case the originally returned objects are well, not 
serializable....
   
   Yes - maybe the name could be better but - Naming is the hardest thing in 
computer science right next to cache invalidation.
   
   I think at this stage holding release of several providers and comon.sql  is 
quite a bit too much to hold the release for that.
   
   Do you think it is worth it to make extra overhead for the release process? 
What would be a better name in this case?
