What would happen with all the old Firebid databases then? Might be a 
good idea first to put to newest version and then to set non 
experimental, but there are many people already using internal Firebird 
and it should work without any problems when changing version of LO (and 
changing Firebird-version this way).

I would prefer to add a special switch like "don't ask again". So old 
HSQLDB still would exist

Every new database I create for other people or companies I create as 
Firebird database. A lot of bugs have been fixed. If you know where to 
look for you will get a good working database…
