Such a thing can be targetted only once rdb will be able to build and query
on a large set of the SQL norm in an easy to use DSEL. Before that, no
expert of RDBMS would be willing to help on such tasks, since I don't think
pure Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc experts are also C++ experts and Boost
Developers at the same time (correct me if I'm wrong, though).
