Cool module!

Although the module does not resolve the binding issue, I think the database binding ability is lost any way with dynamic query. So that's fine. (Update: I was mistaken about this. See below davidrw's solution. His solution allows dynamic query to take full benefit of binding.)

Side Note: although that module supports "binding", that's not the real binding. From database point of view, the queries prepared in this way are submited as literal, which will run slower than queries with real database binding that happens after prepare.

With literal query, database sees it as a new query every time it is submited, so there is less optimization done. Where as non-literal queries, the optimization is done once, and used ever after, until the query is flahsed off the query pool, due to size limitation of the pool.
