Title:
  refactor around const_cast<>

Status in A Lightweight SQL Database for Cloud Infrastructure and Web Applications:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There are many places in the code that use const_cast<> to remove
  constness. In almost all of them this is a bandaid around coding
  problems that are reminiscent of Attila the Hun's pillaging.

  Each instance should be examined, understood, and then the code path
  needs to be changed so that the const_cast is not required and the
  constness can be maintained.
