sde is on a distinguished road
i've been using php more and more lately for shell scripting. as you mentioned, database connectivity is the #1 reason, not to mention it's my favorite language.

a while back i'd mainly use it for fun integration with our half-life game servers i help run, but now i use php scripting for clients too. one of them needs several datafeeds generated from their huge product list everyday and php is perfect for that.
