The PHP library of functions can be made available just as if they were
Firebird built in functions. So some of the date handling or string
processing functions could be used in an SQL statement. It's not
something that should be too difficult to do, and I think Ard was
heading that way. So when a port of an application from another engine
needs some 'funny' function, it's probably already available in the PHP
library and we can use it.

Anatol is looking for two phase commit, where the transaction covers
both connections. Not something I've tried myself.
Apparently there is a problem when you add the second connection to
ibase_trans :(
