There's a fork on github that adds some support for ADO.NET on
IronRuby.  I've chatted with the author of the fork and he's working
on getting it ready for import into Sequel.

Not really doable. Internally, Sequel already separates the database
specific stuff like SQL syntax from the adapter specific bits.  But
each adapter needs to at least have some wiring for the databases it
supports.  For example, you can probably connect to PostgreSQL using
the odbc adapter, but there is no wiring in the odbc adapter for
PostgreSQL, so you won't get PostgreSQL specific syntax.

Also, the do and jdbc adapters just pass the connection string
directly, so splitting connection strings wouldn't be possible for
those adapters.
