I would suggest that those wishing to use a database other than SQLite
will have to know what they are doing so can define the DSN externally
and so when opening a book if its name is not in the data source list
create a SQLite DSN and add it to the data source list.

The QOFBackend interface is documented in the Doxygen docs.
The rest of it, however, hasn't been well documented.
I do not believe that gnc-engine.c should load the module -- it should
get loaded elsewhere. If that's where stuff is being loaded now then
I think that's a bug.
