Does it make sense to exist R::D::DBIish::Pg, R::D::DB::Pg, R::D::DBIish::MySQL, R::D::DB::MySQL, R::D::DBIish::SQLite and T::D::DB::SQLite?

I was thinking this before, people may have compelling reasons for using one family of Database modules or the other, so yes. Except for the actuial interfaces used to perform queries, there should be a fair amount of commonality.

I never tried on FreeBSD...

I was thinking... we shouldn’t require SQLite and DB::Pg... if the user only want to use one of them, we shouldn’t require both... so, should we require no one?
