Is here anybody from mysql development team, to suggest to build IN  
ALL function?

There is a problem here: the basic operation is on the record, each record by 
each record, all by itself. The solution to your problem entails acting on more 
distinct records until enough have been encountered.

If you imagine the table input to a program that checks for hits, you will see 
the problem. The program reads its input, for every number of the four that you 
want matched it holds on to its mate until that mate is matched with all four 
of the chosen. It is a global condition, and SQL works one record at a time. 
Global conditions are detected only through the summary functions.
