I just thought of a downside to using lc as db middleware if I choose to use SQLite. The SQLite library supplied with LC is months old, and a large number of bug fixes and several useful enhancements are missing. I have filed QCC reports about this and also asked for the ability to load our own sqlite library so the team don't have to bother keeping theirs up to date but so far, no luck.
I believe with php, I would be able to use whatever sqlite library I wanted to use.
