The following comparison was added to the readme file.
ob-sql-mode :
- is very simple : forward the sql source through `sql-redirect'
- has a test suite
- but gives clunky output
- no :results table
- sql client shell commands messes up output
- prompt again for connection parameters when restarting a session
ob-sql-session :
- handle large results
- has :results tables
- accept header variables (:var)
- accept sql client shell commands
- keep login parameters
- prompt only for blank connection parameters
- can use `with-environment-variables'
- provide some more tests

To be clear, this makes 3 implementations of SQL support for Org Babel
that I know of:
1. The built-in Org Babel SQL support, aka ob-sql, documented at
<https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/ob-doc-sql.html>
2. ob-sql-mode, hosted at <https://github.com/nikclayton/ob-sql-mode>,
which advertises itself as "an alternative backend for Org-Babel SQL SRC
blocks that uses sql-mode to evaluate the query instead of Org-Babel's
built-in SQL backends."
3. Your new ob-sql-session library.
You've mentioned how your library compares to ob-sql-mode, but how does
it compare to the built-in ob-sql library?
Thanks,
Adam

Here is a comparison with ob-sql-mode
ob-sql-session exists is for session support, which is in the TODOs
of ob-sql.
- ob-sql command execution relies on org-babel-eval
(→ process-file → call-process).
- ob-sql-session runs an inferior process (in which
sqli-interactive-mode can be activated when needed).
The process output is filtered (e.g. results and prompts).
When a session is demanded, this shell stays open for further commands
and can keep a state (typically, when given special SQL commands).

ob-sql-session adapts sql-connect of sql.el by declaring
ob-sql-connect, in order to prompt only for missing connection
parameters.
- ob-sql defines org-babel-sql-dbstring-[engine]
to be provided on a shell command line.
- likewise, ob-sql-session has to define
- a connection string,
- the prompt,
- and the terminal command prefix
for a every supported SQL client shell (or "engines")
- ob-sql-session requires sql.el.
With the above defined, it should be compatible
with most database of the sql.el's zoo. maybe.
