I would say yes and no to this. While I like the idea of being able
to run Frontier the same way I can run MySQL and PostgreSQL, it's not
really the same type of application. I find that there are all kinds
of times when I want/need to work in Frontier's interface. You can
proabably do 98% of that work via Timbuktu (which I'm not that
familiar with), but for an interface driven app, which Frontier still
is to a large extent, there's no substitute for working on the
console.
