SQLite already has table functions of sort: PRAGMAs...

They have their own issues (not real tables, so cannot be used in joins,
AFAIK), and of course you cannot add your own PRAGMA in client code using
the SQLite3 C API.

I'm hoping there's no big leap between current PRAGMAs and real table
functions, with SQL grammar changes to be able to <<<select * from
TABLE(my_table_func(...))>>>, and that Dr. Hipp agrees table functions
would be a valuable addition of course :). --DD
