[Devel] Patch for DB-API / mysql Module

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Carsten,

no, the patch was no lost :). I was trying to see if a similar function 
exists for postgres. Any change in the DB API is translated in updating 
*all* module implementing it - mysql, postgres, flatstore, dbtext, 
unixodbc.

Maybe a better approach is to add a new capability flag for this 
feature; if supported, the DB module will advertise this flag; see 
db/db_cap.h

regards,
bogdan
