I don't think it's worth paying too much attention to it quite yet since
there are still a few fairly visible holes that are known and there only
because I haven't gotten round to implementing the function in question
-- however hopefully I'll be able to clear these up in the next week or
two, after which full testing would be useful.
(Specifically off the top of my head: some index issues, no comments for
tables/columns, floating point numbers are acting a bit strangely but
that seems to be common to HSQLDB, metadata on data types is partially
wrong -- however in any case bug reports would probably still be a
useful reminder of what needs doing.)

That would actually be very useful I think, especially since common
issues are likely to be a bug in Base and hence narrow down where to
look to fix them.
