Yes. You might also briefly review scientific publications in this area. I've found a few (it was a couple of years ago), but their approach was different from what is suggested here. Anyway, my preliminary experiments shows that it's totally possible to find 90% of test failures in only 10% of the time. > If it was not possible to participate in the latter project, I would > also be interested to work on adding support for "OR REPLACE, CREATE > IF NOT EXISTS and DROP IF EXISTS".

It seems like a better match for you, and also it seems like you will have less competition there. I'd expect more proposals for the second task.
