what is your goal?
If it's to port pgAdmin2 to Linux, then why do you need a database
abstraction layer? Why not use direct calls to postgres? Most language have
native support (C, C++, PHP, Python, Perl...) Is it not true that pgAdmin
under windows has some limitations due to the fact that it's usind ODBC?
If it's to write a generic database management tool that can be used against
different databases then the need for an abstraction layer is obvious.
