The other thing about all of this is that MySQL is feature rich so most people
might not have a use for stored procedures.  Unlike, say, Informix which has
not build in MIN or MAX function.

Again, if having stored procedures built in does not slow down queries that do
not use stored procedures, I do not see what the harm is.
