Hi Matt, My friend made a product called sql_firewall for PostgreSQL.
https://github.com/uptimejp/sql_firewall http://pgsnaga.blogspot.jp/2015/08/postgresql-sql-firewall.html It's not directly relevant to your proposal, but this kind of database extension could be alternative. PDO has parser for params. Parser may be extended to parse basic SQL syntax and store syntax tree hash like sql_firewall and compare it to reject SQL injection attacks. Just FYI.
