But I mean the base DBD::RAM you'll find at 
http://search.cpan.org/dist/DBD-RAM/ ;)

I would reduce it for in-memory tables only.

We can built some DBI::DBD::SqlEngine related tests on it without
mocking wild around (what is currently necessary). And we can do
some nice tests with importing data between DBD's (when having
SQL::Statement).
