Not as bad as Base's default type of database. This part of Base is not
even a valid proof-of-concept. The whole concept is dysfunctional by
design and nobody dares to stop this madness.
Just like MSAccess, Base is extremely useful as a frontend for database
engines. You must not use the built-in JET engine with Access. HSQL is
an excellent platform independent database engine but you must not embed
HSQL in extensions which are installed and repackaged every time you
"open" or "close" the so called "database document".
