Yet :)
Compared to some of the (huge) things that are maintained in the base,
maintaining sqlite would be trivial :)
But it's not as if the question is "sqlite or bust" - as OP noted,
restructuring the system a bit and using better algorithms could fix
many problems. The thing is - using something like sqlite is (at least
for people used to SQL) much easier than rolling your own file system
database (including locking and atomic ops).
We're rehashing the discussion made last year around June - July.
We came to the conclusion that BDB should be used, as no other DB
backend / API exists in the base system (currently), and porting
SQLLite (while nice) appeared to be non-trivial to port and got a lot
of unhappy responses from folks.
