The tied(?) hash interfaces in DBI grate on me. You know,
$dbh->{'RaiseError'}, $sth->{'Active'}, and all that jazz.  I'd sorely like
to see these change to normal methods with more Perl-ish names:
   $dbh->raise_error(0);
   $sth->active;
   $sth->ix_cursor_with_hold(1);
 

That gains absolutely *no* functionality for the burden of loosing 
compatibility. Besides, we obviously have different feelings, what's 
"Perl-ish" or not. Please, don't.
