That's great for those who use PEAR::DB, but it's not very safe to argue against addslashes() based on what's in a specific PEAR module. I would argue that something like mysql_escape_string() is better than addslashes(), so I agree with you for the most part anyway. :-) It all depends on what database is being used and how.
