There has been quite a lot of feedback, but no conclusion could be
reached on various topics. Neithertheless I updated the codereview to
reflect the latest changes in trunk, especially the usage python-sql.

I'd like to ask for some voluteers to test and review the change. There
have been some improvements and, with some time passed by, maybe some
things appear in a different light now.

It probably wont make it into 3.0, but some new feedback would hopefully
reanimate the discussion.
