Active DB queries in WordPress?

wpdb doesn’t include such kind of API, mostly since it descended from ezSQL which didn’t either (as far as I remember).

While there are some helpers for insert/update stuff, most of query abstraction happens in WP_Query since that’s where bulk of complicated querying is typically going on.
