In what way?  Do some of these try to commit transactions for you?
Class::DBI doesn't.

Still not getting it.  DBI supports this almost exactly.

Can't help you there.  If you want to talk to the database, you need a
dbh.  This is where the incompatibilities that I'm aware of lie:
sharing a dbh between multiple O/R mappers can get tricky because they
each have different expectations about how it will be created and what
the default settings are.
