Well, the "single file" database implemented by means of the HSQLDB
engine targets exactly the people who don't care for this distinction.
We implemented this because we think those people are important, and the
"Queries in Queries" feature is also targeting those people.

People knowing the distinction are probably equally good served with
views, since they allow to solve the same problems (perhaps after we
made views editable, which is difficult, since there is no common way
supported by even only a majority of DBs).

Ciao
