Maybe it would be useful to have a dummy DATABASE milestone, since I 
imagine there are many applications that do depends on various databases 
(mail & webservers being the first to come to mind). Having a DATABASE 
milestone would allow for good decoupling between the individual apps 
and the various databases. Databases would "BEFORE: DATABASE", and apps 
depending on them could simply "REQUIRE: DATABASE" and not have to worry 
about whether it was compiled with a postgresql, mysql or someothersql 
database.

Just a thought, and possibly not the most well-considered one at that, 
but I figured it might be worthwhile enough to share :)
