Protocols in Python
— [Datasette](https://datasette.io/) currently has a few API internals that return `sqlite3.Row` objects. I was thinking about how this might work in the future - if Datasette ever expands beyond SQLite (plugin-provided backends for PostgreSQL and DuckDB for example) I'd want a way to return data from other stores using objects that behave like `sqlite3.Row` but are not exactly that class.
