So I'd say, if your project can use client-server functionality now or in the future, do it! Use Chipps altMYSQL lite if it's imbedded. It just works and saves time for other things, like the interface!
SQL itself is pretty easy as a language. It's verbose, self describing and consists of 40 or so commands that all make sense. Sometimes it's almost like Transcript! You usually only need to know a few commands to get a listing or a single record. It's a little more involved to insert and create records, but not much with Trevor's lib. And if the data doesn't need to be entered much, one can always manage the data input side with a SQL client such as CocoaMySQL and many others. I save various SQL calls in custom properties to avoid a lot of the quoting problems, and Trevor's lib also cleans up the entered SQL calls.
Speaking of verbose, I'll stop. Sorry for the long post.

SQL is, probably, in about direct to disk datas storage and management, the perfect Rev sister-ship and, with the help of Chipp's libraries, a piece of cake to set-up. Leaen once how to drive SQL back-ends from within Rev and you will than use this winning combination all the time :-)
