RFC a proposed API to the DBIC list if you want to see that in 0.08 - or at 
the very least throw together a couple of tests for the hack if you want to be

Hey, not complaining - but it *was* a dev release from the -current and it 
won't go to trunk and thence CPAN until we've fixed it. Much appreciated on 
the win32 front (mutters darkly about Active State Software's perl packaging)
