The wiki document for the experimental branch now suggests the use of a database abstraction layer. I propose the use of an object relational mapper to accomplish this abstraction. This has the advantage of being extremely easy to use, less code needs to be written, therefore fewer errors will result. The con to an object relational mapper is performence during bulk database operations. This should not be an issue because vcl performs no large transactions.
Does the community agree that any future major proposals should include a database abstraction layer using an object relational mapper because of the above advantages?
