I'm the author of TOra and I'm currently working in implemented a QSql 
based plugin for TOra. The problem of porting to TOra to direct QSql is 
that it isn't nearly versatile enough in it's SQL access to the database 
for TOra. The main missing feature being bind variables which can be 
both input and output, but it will still work for simple access like 
database browsing for instance. TOra features more advanced features 
like database PL/SQL debugger for instance for Oracle and here QSql is 
simply insufficient. I think a QSql based IOSlave sounds like a great 
idea though.
