As it stands right now, this is irrelevant, because database access is not very powerful yet, it does not allow for all sorts of segmenting and sorting. Even worse, a simple file system is not yet available to compensate for shortcomings of the current state of the database. Kobo does not have prospective great database system working, but it already does not have old reliable file system working either. Where is logic in that?
