At the moment queries seem to be spread over dbmail. Is it hard to use a

Sounds a lot like what I'm working on.
The retrieval api must indeed be totally opaque, while still allowing full
control over retrieval-conditions. Returning cursors where possible, and
fake-cursors when not seems like a very good idea that aligns nicely with
db-apis used elsewhere.
