MUHAHAHAHA now I have the power of YAHOO!

Today, I've been given access to the Yahoo support contract with MySQL. I can now request things on Yahoo's behalf to be fixed and or added to MySQL for various versions.

This helps you because Yahoo has the same problems you might with MySQL.

This helps MySQL because to keep the product going companies need to buy support contracts or keep their support contract open.

What would you liked fixed or added?

1. Out-of-the-box platform-independent support for uniqueidentifier (stored as 128-bit integer) type and newid function like in MS SQL Server.

2. Move towards ISO SQL standards.

Fix multiple cpu support.

Maybe there's a configuration or compilation option I've missed, but even with threading enabled, I can't get mysql 5 to use more than on CPU on redhat 4.
