well, even if it's possible to do as "sql" in mysql, it is still possible to 
implement as the method.

p.s. actually, as we're talking about "trunk" it is still possible to implement 
these methods in generic fashion.
I can provide implementation for pdo_mysql (unless anyone else will be faster).
does anyone know enough about ibm's api to provide implementation for it?
