There was some discussion of this on the Class::DBI list, so please take
a look.  As I recall, the gist of it was that LIMIT is proprietary to
MySQL and there is no equivalent that is supported by all SQL92
databases (although some other databases have their own incompatible
syntax for it), so if someone wants this it needs to go into
Class::DBI::MySQL.  Feel free to raise it on the list again though if
you have more ideas or patches.
