At present it is nearly possible to write extensions that bypass the PDO php api, and talk directly to the drivers via the PDO Api - it helps alot that the backends where designed not to return zval's much (meta is a rather messy exception, that hopefully may get looked at after 5.1 I guess). I think Wez, pretty correctly doesnt want to go too far with datatype abstraction in PDO, I've got some way with making DBDO use PDO as a backend, and it has a far more comprehensive datatype abstraction. (as that is one of it's primary focuses.) But the fact that meta is returning zval's is a bit of a pain, that I've been putting off dealing with it this week.
