Is there a reason that '%' doesn't match 'localhost'? I recently spent
more time than I care to admit tearing my hair out over this while
setting up authorization for a user. I've looked at the link that James
provided, which does at least mention this inconsistency, but it doesn't
seem to give a reason for it.
Anyone?

Sorry. I'll go caffeinate myself before asking more stupid questions.

Hey guys, I'm running mysql 5.1.9 and I've got a user who's
mysql.user host is set to "%" and can log in from any domain except
localhost. if I change to localhost, and flush privileges they can
log in.
Is this intended behavior, or should % be inclusive of localhost?
