 Replying to [comment:124 wonderboymusic]:

 to shove another slug in there.

 This is going to be hard to access.  Plugins and mu-plugins aren't loaded
 until after a database connection is made, so what could set that filter?
 If this is in core, it would probably only be code in db.php.  The current
 plugin on github relies on a constant named WPDB_DRIVER (presumably in wp-
 config.php) if the user wants to pick a particular driver.

 Thoughts?
