There doesn't appear to be a standard database access API in PHP.  Instead there's a separate API for each database supported.  This is insanity for anyone that wants to be able to support multiple databases.  I know there are a number of database abstraction APIs available for PHP but I don't know which one is the best or which one will be continue to be supported in the future.  Are there plans to address these issues in a future release of PHP by adopting one of these abstraction APIs into PHP or creating a new one?

PHP ships with 2 such abstraction layers.  A language-level one called dbx and a user-space one called DB which is part of PEAR.
