Subject: SQL result as a single string, rather than table?

I'd like to be able to put a result from SQL inline into my exported
document. Something like this:
Latest database record is from src_sql[:colnames no :results scalar]{select
DATE(CreatedAt) from Event order by CreatedAt desc limit 1;}.
In that case, the SQL result almost works (it surrounds the results with
=...=), but at least on my Windows machine there is an extra ^M and newline
in there. I'd be happy to submit a patch to strip whitespace from the end
of the line in scalar mode, if people think that's a good idea.
In fact here's what I propose:
diff --git a/lisp/ob-sql.el b/lisp/ob-sql.el
index 658a54f..ac999f4 100644
--- a/lisp/ob-sql.el
