- DB parameters can now be bound using the native JS type rather than by specifying the type explicitly (e.g. Scholar.DB.query(sql, [1, 2, "hello"]) -- for use when the data is generated internally and trusted, obviously

- Don't try to display an SQLite error when it's "not an error" (i.e. when the error is in something else)

- Switch to nsIFile instead of nsILocalFile to retrieve the profile directory
