Agree.  Since this was an add-on, I wanted to do all the db 
sensitive stuff in one place.  I have an aversion to testing 
for the type of database in other places.  In this case, it 
seemed the quickest way of dropping in SQLite support 
without regard to how a sever's php.ini file may be set up.

Ideally, all 'magic' stuff should be "off" as in the 
php-recommended file
