Well, parts of the code are shared with a server side component, which we
already ported from Oracle to pg, so licensing costs aside we were hoping
avoid having to maintain yet another different type of db backend (build up
know how, ...)

But if using pg won't work, I guess sqlite (or Ingres, which I haven't
worked with before) would be an alternative.  Although, for example with
SQLite, I'd have to check carefully if we don't need more features than it
has ...
