| Description | Cannot proceed to install without a database. My database is the only real limit on my hosting plan. Not sure if v11 offers a database-less install but if it does, the issue may also exist there. It's a shame, given the db is a massive attack vector. |

In fact, the XML driver does not work at all in v11, and I have no plans right now to fix it (costs outweigh benefits).
However, I'd suggest adding a feature request for something like SQLite support, which can easily be done since PHP supports it natively.
I'm mainly doing this for additional dev testing capabilities. But it will work for admins of simple sites who want just a flat file for the database.
