...and make sure that the results of the query land in C++ variables in 
a type-safe manner. Which was the original goal, the idea of preventing 
the composition of an illegal sql statement came afterward.

Yes it looks like it makes sense.

My "sql constructors" return models of very simple concepts that contain 
a few typedefs (a tag, a result type) and a str(ostream&) function for 
converting the object graph into text. Later I'll have prepared 
statements too but it seems that it's feasible, maybe even easy, to slip 
my objects under your framework.

Interesting times :-)
