That's true. It aims to support more features of the SQL quasi-standard. As 
Kexi is not SQLite frontend, it does just this - carefully picks common 
subsets of the data handling features. Insertions and updates are among them 
of course, so don't worry. We're as the transition process to 1) KDE 4 libs, 
2) Predicate (ex-KexiDB2) lib (that's stable but just in early stage in terms 
of features).

Thanks for using Kexi now or in the past, and don't hesitate to file a wish or 
two in the bugzilla...
