I agree absolutely. I was thrilled to discover CONCAT_WS and now use it all the time in ways very similar to how you do--joining lists of things that may or may not have values. It would be very irritating to have to rewrite this functionality within MySQL, and tedious to have to do it in the relevant programming language instead.
