Could be. But there was no indication, either in the SQLite
documentation or SQLAlchemy documentation, of what the expected format
was. This is less of a code bug as a documentation bug, but even so it
might be a good idea to not be so liberal about what we accept.

It isn't SA's place to validate data for your database.  If you want a database that's more rigorous about such things, then don't use sqlite. :)
