Ah, but there's the rub, "once security matters are dealt with".
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as a storage-specific language I don't
believe SQL offers as much for sanitizing as PHP, Ruby, LiveCode, and
other more general languages.
I think there's a good reason most of the world protects their DBs from
open exposure to the Internet via an intermediary scripting language,
more than just for the convenience of making REST APIs.
