Good point. Probably there should be some GRASS module to help moving
around raster/vector data?
I.e. g.export rast/vect=mymap out=myfile.tgz and g.import in=myfile.tgz
Required features:
* needs to preserve vector topology(!);
* preserves history, metadata etc.;
* simple source/target projection check.

IMHO it will be more easy to create such data exchange modules than
implement all SQL RDBMS features in GRASS for managing data in DBF's
or other poor backends.

Oh, yeah - g.copy is not an option - it still segfaults on my Gentoo
~x86 machine (6.3.0RC4). I can only copy raster maps with r.mapcalc :)
