So are these going to be separate objects? It seems that it would be possible to make the embedded sqlite deterministic, but the libdbi object should be organized around the idea that the response time is not known ( i.e. it's not going to happen in one Pd clock tick). Then it'll be possible to use it with any database over any connection.

Yes, they would be separate objects, but with the goal of using the same PD interface. While I know that different databases have their "own" special brand of SQL, there is enough commonality that we should at least be able to make the PD stuff consistent.

Also, I was not planning to try and use the libdbi stuff in realtime, as there is the network and all to contend with.
