Can someone post the 'six foot long url?'  I can't find the article on stable data, and it sounds like something I need to read!

Maybe I've been doing database development for too long, but aren't you better off using a stored procedure?  Embedding SQL doesn't make sense for most applications.

Sometimes you need to dynamically generate SQL in the application, but I don't think this solves that problem.

Maybe this will make a lot more sense after I get a good look at Yukon?  I don't see much value for the client or the middle tier, but maybe on the database server itself.

Clearly there's some value in the idea - catching problems at runtime is no fun.
