Hi Colin, I worked on Zend_Db quite a bit during 2007.  The COLUMN fetch
mode was not supported when I joined the project, and I don't recall anyone
mentioning any interest in it, so I didn't bother with it when there were so
many other tasks to do that were in high demand.

So: not an oversight, not by design, just never got around to it.

Likewise there was no purpose for using PDO constants instead of Zend_Db
constants with identical name and value.  There was no functional need to
change them in code that was internal to Zend_Db, and no justification for
spending time on it when there was a long list of other things to do that
would result in more substantial benefit.

Regards,
Bill Karwin
