Well, now, isn't this interesting!
sqlpython certainly has cause to parse SQL - for instance, sqlpyPlus.expandWildSql locates the list of selected columns to replace wildcards. However, because its method for finding the selected columns in the statement is so primitive, wild SQL can only be used in very straightforward cases where the SELECT list is right up at the beginning - and I've already had a request for wild SQL in more complex queries...
