Ummm...  Sure, but not really my question, either.  Not questioning the
wisdom, just the technical issues.  Perhaps someone can point me to the
relevant archives so I can look?

There's nothing to resolve. In the discussion of SQLite3 requirements
earlier in the year, one of the issues that came up was database migration,
and the concensus on the list at the time was to forgo automatic migration
to keep the library simple.

Migration can be done very simply using the sqlite/sqlite3 shells and the
.dump command.

This was a conscious deliberate decision.
