Take it easy guys -- we're just talking about software here.

There are many O/R mappers on CPAN.  They don't have identical
interfaces to Class::DBI, but they do have a lot of similar
functionality.  Here are a few I know about:

SPOPS
Class::PObject
DBIx::DBO2
DBIx::RecordSet
DBIx::Record
(several others that look pretty immature omitted)

And somewhat farther afield:

Tangram
Pixie
XML::Comma

This doesn't mean you shouldn't pursue your idea, but just be aware that
many people have gone down this path before.
