I think mostly historic reasons.
I remember I wrote a macro that considered SQL_NO_DATA as success too
to use in these cases.
Is not clear the distinction between SQL_NO_DATA and SQL_SUCCESS in
these cases, seems that for instance updates/inserts should return
SQL_NO_DATA and not SQL_SUCCESS according to the documentation.
Maybe would be good to check and change for version 1.1.
