Not yet. That would require a lot of duplicate commits in the bug
fixing and cleanup phase.

Well, the first ideas are:
- A function for deleting a PR should be added. This is only seldom
used, but it's sometimes useful and can also be used e.g. by
maintenance tools.
- Maybe it's not *necessary* to force backends to implement full query
handling. We probably can agree on that writing new backends should
be as simple as possible. I can imagine that your `query_pr' function
could be only optional and there could be available simpler versions
of query functions that can get a list of all problem IDs, a
particular PR and maybe also optionally some index (similar to the
current one).
