As to (1), no, MySQL does not support triggers as of now, and I do not
really know of any plans to support them in the future. What is done
with triggers can be (maybe not just as easily, but certainly faster
in most cases) done with client-side programming and proper database
design.
As to (2), to access a MySQL server, you need the MySQL client libraries.
No, you do not need the whole MySQL package (along with the server) installed.
G'luck,
Peter
