Almost no one (including me) is interested in ORM for SQL. The
point is ORM+SQL is limiting and sooner or later you fallback
to SQL.
Additionally there is no critical mass for this kind of big
project (combining all the SQL engines - good luck).
Andrei suggested a CTFE sql parser, so people who like SQL (not
me) can benefit from the D metaprogramming power.
For the rest there is my proposal ;) : a language embedded DB.
As far as I can tell none of the known PLes has this "killer"
feature.

i don't mind if it's an ORM or something else. my point was that
instead of complaining about stuff, we need a safe, stable and
extendable database library supporting sqlite, mysql, postgresql,
mssql and oracle dbs and we need it like yesterday. nothing
fancy. people can get creative and fancy over that standard api
and users get to choose.
