AFAIK Xavier had plans to use as many prepared statements as possible in 
the core (don't know when that will be done). 
t3lib_db_PreparedStatement::fetch() doesn't support FETCH_OBJ or 
FETCH_CLASS (yet).

IMO we also should be absolutely sure that DBAL can support this option 
in all supported DBMSs. Don't know how to handle this during Xaviers 
vacation.

I'm also not quite sure about a use case for this feature (don't think 
we add features just because we can).
