Bug#495977: libdbi-perl: Loading cipher modules automatically in DBD::Proxy

[Frédéric Brière]

Package: libdbi-perl
Version: 1.607-1
Severity: wishlist

It'd be nice if DBD::Proxy automatically loaded the cipher module (eval
"require $cipher") when necessary.  Right now, the task falls upon the
caller (a fact which is undocumented).

This is not an issue on the server side, since DBI::ProxyServer just
passes the object along, which has already been created by the caller.
But since DBD::Proxy creates the object itself, it would make sense for
it to take care of the module too.
