I like this idea. I think that having the ability to ease the strain of |
| 11 |
upgrading applications that entail SQL migrations, as opposed to merely |
| 12 |
issuing warnings, would make for a powerful tool. |

My first thought is that, as gentoo-server is a low-traffic list, you'd |
| 18 |
likely find more people willing to comment if you were to post on the |
| 19 |
gentoo-dev list instead. |

My second thought is that this may be of particular interest to those |
| 22 |
developers who are maintaining ebuilds that import the webapp eclass, as |
| 23 |
web applications seem to be rather volatile in this regard. |
