It does not seem to exists any standard for how to define SQL statements in a object oriented API. Currently different products have completely different syntax. Until such standard exists, people can always argue that it safer to type SQL statements directly as strings in the application source code. But there are many situations there an application framework need to know how the statements is built up, not just that it is a stream of characters.

Is it someone here interested to try to make a draft for such standard?
