Agreed, but I was thinking more about libxbase and libxbsql. The latter I 
wrote (with support from theKompany) so can just be some code in with the 
KDE-DB xbase plugin, but libxbase? Including this as "part" of KDE gives an 
out-of-the-box setup free database. OTOH libxbase doesn't feel like KDE code; 
kdesupport perhaps?
