"For beginners, a useful startup option is --safe-updates (or --i-am-a-dummy, which has the same effect). This option was introduced in MySQL 3.23.11. It is helpful for cases when you might have issued a DELETE FROM tbl_name statement but forgotten the WHERE clause. Normally, such a statement deletes all rows from the table. With --safe-updates, you can delete rows only by specifying the key values that identify them. This helps prevent accidents.
Is it really up to the database to decide what queries are ok? It's the task of the developers to test their applikations.
