In that case, maybe you should use DBD::AnyData (formerly called 
DBD::RAM) which can create in-memory databases.  Dump from SQLite into 
the in-memory database, manipulate it as desired, dump from the 
in-memory database back to SQLite, all using SQL.

Then again, maybe I misunderstand what you want to accomplish or am just 
applying my hammer (I'm the author of DBD::AnyData) to that thing that 
looks like a nail to me.
