I wonder if per-directory is really necessary; I guess I'm worrying
about the case were the WC tree has lots of directories with few files.
Do we not have the whole tree in a single Sqlide DB now? Depending on
the schema, it might be possible to load the status information from the
database in one single query.

(On a side note ... it's all very well to shun specialized caching and
expect your database layer do do it for you [optimally], but I see no
reason to believe that Sqlite would be significantly better at that than
BDB.)
