I don't agree that this library should aim for any inclusion in phobos. I plan on exposing the MySQL API as closely as possible and a couple of higher level convenience functions. The std.database would have to be database agnostic, and should be a library interfacing to mysql-native, postgres etc.
Yes, std.database should be database agnostic. But that doesn't mean we can't include one or a couple of database adapters. For example, Ruby on Rails contains a couple of database adapters, but not for all databases. It has no adapter for SQL Server, for that you need a separate gem/plugin.
An adapter for MySQL would probably be good to include. Even better, an adapter for SQLite. Perhaps we can include the whole SQLite source code, since it's public domain.
