PDO simply changes the ground rules without solving any particular

that all the native drivers should be dropped from PHP and only PDO

One of the dream features back in the early days of PDO was a way to get
a "native extension" connection out of PDO. Unfortunately this turned
out to be impossible(?) to do :(
I don't think the target is unrealistic, I just think the structure of PDO is
the wrong starting point. But then I am happy working with ADOdb so perhaps
I'm coming from the wrong side. The projects I'm working with run on a
selection of databases out of the box without any difficulty - and don't need
PDO to do so, so there is no incentive to change.
