Hi all,

sometimes life would be easier with a more general 'REPLACE' function
available. That's when I find mysqlf dumping a database, editing with sed
and reloading.

My feature request: a string editing function similar to sed's
s/regexp/replacement/ command to work on the contents of CHAR, VARCHAR and
TEXT columns. In case of parse errors it should return the unchanged
string as a default.

What do others think? Any comments are welcome.

Thomas Spahni
