I confess that what little I've heard about ODBC, it's a terrible
idea to use it, but I'm not much of a database guy, so I'm not
really in a position to judge. Regardless, it would probably make
sense to support both ODBC _and_ the individual drivers. Yes,
that's more work, but it provides greater flexibility as well,
and we could start with ODBC support so that we have _something_
and add support for individual drivers later so that we get the
better performance. Then folks can use whichever they prefer, and
we get something working sooner rather than later, even if it
takes longer to get it all.
