True. Though for limited devices you can do the same thing they do to 
transfer a pre-built squid.conf (and included files) with scp or just 
telnet.

My understanding is that tools using sqlite like you describe are also 
using it internally for config and/or data storage anyway. Squid is not, 
so it is also in the category of "not usually available" for us.

Long-term we have a wishlist entry to make the cachemgr API accept POST 
requests with config lines to add/replace to its running configuration.
