I'm not trying to start a religious war, but at the moment, MySQL
doesn't support transactions, which I see as one of the big gains in
moving from (or supporting in addition to) the current file based
system. Yes, one can implement transactions "on-top-of", but then you
might as well stick with the file system.
Of course, the Right Thing is to be DB independent, but you probably
need to have some sort of "pre-test" to make sure the configured DB
supports all the necessary functionality.
