The goal is to let Firebird run both server-side (Node.js) and fully client-side in the browser, with no server round-trip required for queries. Highlights: Two backends: a native Node.js implementation (via the Firebird Embedded Server) and a WASM build for

Dmitry Sibiryakov pointed this out on firebird-general, and the source confirms it. In src/jrd/replication/Publisher.cpp, checkStatus() is called with canThrow = false on the commit path, so it cannot throw; disable_on_error (default true) instead clears the replicating flags, disposes the replicator and logs

Firebird reports the same alias name for each function of a given type, and IBX’s disambiguation could previously associate fields with the wrong column.
