bummer.  I was hoping INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
  would be a way around:

"""...since grabbing an empty cursor,
as is done in the default method, doesn't provide a
description. """

I do see
"SELECT name FROM sqlite_master WHERE type='table' AND name=%s" % 
self.escQuote(tablename))

Does sqlite_master store column names too?
