You seem to have a fixation here: as far as I can recall nobody here
has proposed anything of the kind, and this is the second time in this
thread you begin about it.

I suppose you misunderstood something earlier on. Let's try to set it
straight. What in this thread caused you to think about hooking up
browsers directly to databases?
