I'm particularly interested in:
Basic object API (there is going to be an object right?)

The DBI has a (currently private) method to determine the underlying
database type. It was borrowed from DBIx::AnyDBD. Take a look at
_dbtype_names() in DBI.pm
I intend to extend it to use $dbh->get_info(17); (=SQL_DBMS_NAME),
and give it a public api, in the medium term.
I think it would be wise
