Sounds reasonable. Have you done a comparison against things like mdbtools and 
the Gnome libgda?

OK, so libsqlite would be a dependency to build qsqlite, which would 
optionally build based on the presence of libsqlite.

Does it really need to go into kdelibs? kdelibs is getting pretty large. Is it 
worth starting a new module for these "enhancement" things. Plus its GPL, and 
most (all?) of kdelibs is LGPL.
