Well, from reading it certainly works but it's not optimal at all when you use DBAL and a native handler as you don't use extended INSERT anymore. You should have something like that for instance for 
your exec_ method:

switch ((string)$this->handlerCfg[$this->lastHandlerKey]['type']) {
	case 'native':
		return parent::exec_INSERTmultipleRows($table, $fields, $rows, $no_quote_fields);
	default:
		foreach ($rows as $row) {
			...
		}
}

This may be written another way as testing the 'native' handler could be done as an early return but the idea is this one, just as for the other exec_ methods.
