> Also, we already have a standard for SQL

I know right, there are in fact several (which may have been part of the problem). Most SQL database vendors tend to stray slightly (or not so slightly) from the SQL standard that they target; SQLite is no exception.

Just unfortunate that the browser vendors couldn't come together and build a client-side SQL based API rather than punting and implementing a very basic key/value store on top of which someone will eventually reimplement SQLite. It's like 5 or 10 years from now we'll have what we had 10+ years ago, such progress!
