Simon, I read both your suggestion and the Richard's good explanation about
network problems. I think that the idea still deserves to live in some form
:). I sometimes access sqlite db on a remote computer accessed with sqlite
shell executed in telnet/ssh. It works and it looks like good design for
interaction in terms of network bandwidth. If it can be implemented in more
friendly way toward the developer, I think it would still be a lighter
version of a sql-aware dbms than SQLite/PostgreSQL. Another thought, imagine
that a remote computer contains many sqlite databases and moreover, many
versions of the same database. It's easy to imagine this like hierarchy of
sqlite files accessed remotely, but I just can't imagine straightforward way
to implement this with conventional client/server dbms.
