C<$format> and C<$id>. It also returns the C<$total> records available for the
supplied query. If passed any query other than a SELECT, or if there is a db error,
C<$errors> an array ref is returned containing the error after this manner:
C<$error->{'sqlerr'}> contains the offending SQL keyword.
C<$error->{'queryerr'}> contains the native db engine error returned for the query.
Valid values for C<$format> are 'text,' 'tab,' 'csv,' or 'url. C<$sql>, C<$type>,
C<$offset>, and C<$limit> are required parameters. If a valid C<$format> is passed
in, C<$offset> and C<$limit> are ignored for obvious reasons. A LIMIT specified by
the user in a user-supplied SQL query WILL apply in any case.
