OK, this option will be welcome and the  compatibility  between 
MYsql_NATIVE , MYsql_JDBC and MYsql_ODBC will profits from it.
After some small tests I am still not sure witch driver to choose.
MYsql_JDBC is the "slowest" and has no other advantages.
MYsql_NATIVE should be the best solution for OO as frontend to MYSQL but 
is still "slower" than ODBC and can  (for the moment) not connect over 
the internet.
MYsql_ODBC is the fastest, works  in all conditions (except  on Franks 
Windows machine :-) and i suppose that this driver has the most 
attention from the MYsql developers ?
