Daniele,
QtSQL works at native SQL level, KexiDB works at higher level.

For Kexi 2.x there is also plan to allow displaying externally-created tables 
in Kexi interface without 'importing' them, i.e. linking them.

I've just updated and extended Answer 4.2 in the FAQ:

Please read the workaround I've proposed.
