This is probably a better question for the -devel list.

With 1.3, it is not hard to create reports (it is a lot easier than it
is in 1.2).  However, the specifics are fairly technical, so you may
want to bring this up on the other list.

In both cases, it does require writing the sql, and also generating
the UI.  However, in 1.3, this is quite a bit more format neutral and
loosely coupled.  Furthermore, in 1.3 you can, without a lot of extra
work, create OpenCalc and Excel spreadsheets, CSV exports, and the
like.
