I've finally got round to upgrading after having been busy elsewhere
during the whole 3.0 development cycle, so apologies in advance if this
would have been better said 6 months ago.

I've found 3.0 to be mostly the same as or better than 2.3, but the new
selective quoting means that now I have to pass a Query wherever I want
quoting to work.  Could we add static member functions that call
DBDriver::escape_string_no_conn()?  That would make it possible to do
quoting without a Query object, and without touching C strings directly.
