?Thanks, looks solid for me.

PS: For cmake users I am committing myself to update the FindSqlite.cmake
detection script in areas where it's needed.
Even for the current versioning approach I introduced
SQLITE_MIN_VERSION_PATCH variable among others.[1] Its semantics can be
easily made compatible with the proposed new versioning approach by making
the variable optional. I welcome any further suggestions, also contributing
the file to cmake itself since SQLite is so popular.
