1) What's the normal period from when a patch is submitted to when it is reviewed or committed?
Depends. Some patches are well-tested, their motivation instantly appeal to the reviewer, and their impact is small and well understood. These patches are usually applied as soon as they're discovered. Patches that deviate in some form or another from those properties can take all from a little while, to a long time, to never to get applied.
2) if #1 happens, my patch to the unit test might reveal bugs in other adapters besides sqlite3, so how would that be handled?
Usually people responsible for these adapters will either make a patch of their own or raise the issue here.
I really like the idea of migrations and would love to see the stability of them improved.
Excellent. Please do keep working.
