SQLObject isn't really mature enough, and seems too complex to really be
right for the standard library. Maybe something like dbrow, though.
But most low-level database libraries or extensions really belong as
part of the DB API, and the DB API is implement on a per-backend basis.
Most high-level libraries are outside the scope of the standard
library. dbrow is kind of an anomoly, being both low-level and fairly
database-neutral.
