If not using a generic LDraw cfg XML file, I would prefer plain text special meta's over sqllite too.
Mainly because most software will have their own internal data structures making the sql engine redundant / overkill.
In the end it will probably only be used for importing the stuff into your own data environment, and having to learn sqlite api's while a basic LDraw parser is already available in your own code seems highly annoying to me.
