Yeah, but that would also be quite a bit more tricky to program. :-(

I've got the first version of `myrepl' half done already, so I'll know
real soon if this is likely to do the trick. If this works, I'll think
harder about how to do this on a per-db (or per-table) basis. But I
might not try *too* hard, knowing that the MySQL team is working to
make this easier on their end, too.
