Honestly, I wouldn't do it this way unless I had no alternative.  I'd
build a middle-tier application layer that takes requests from the
clients (via raw sockets, XML-RPC or whatever) and then translates
those calls into SQL queries.  It just gives you a lot more control
over what queries hit your system.
