For one reason, the approach won't be in the GPS database

That's not true of any IFR GPS I've used. They usually have all
approaches, ILS, NDB, etc regardless if they are GPS or not. On the
Garmin you do get a warning though.

I don't believe that the GX-50 / GX-60 units have any approaches other than
GPS (no ILS, no LOC, no SDF, no VOR, no NDB, unless they have GPS
overlays).

The Garmin 400/500 series do. Can't speak for any of the others.
