It would require parsing the queries and rewriting them.

I don't know yet how horrid the Emacs C internals are, but I'm pretty
sure it cannot be that bad, and it's easier to write something in C
now (and throw it away once the FFI arrives) than to implement two
sides of an IPC mechanism and all the query and result set massaging.
