Something I always needed & wanted to do when I worked full-time on
InterBase was an

isc_alter_attachment( <attachment handle>, dpb_length, new
dpb_block );

type call. Then you could switch roles, change character set, etc.
Potentially even change user_id without reconnecting (though that one
seems
dangerous when there are existing requests -- as could changing roles,
charsets, etc)
