Great, I will consider it functional then.

Done. I also added a *standard-sql-strings* variable which can be used
to configure S-SQL to just use standard strings. It would have been
nicer if this could just be derived directly from the connection, but
at the moment S-SQL does not have a concept of connections, and that
is kind of convenient, so if you really want to use standard strings
you'll just have to change this parameter.

Cheers,
