A thought crossed my mind, considering that MariaDB and MySQL are
drifting more and more apart with features and nuances of how they
work, would it be a good idea to create an alias to MySQL PDO driver
under MariaDB name so we can create a MariaDB specific implementation
down the road and so people can use DB specific features right away
and not be confused why there are errors between those 2 if someone
swaps one for the other.
IMHO, this is out of scope for this proposal.
Yes, indeed.
If MariaDB wants to maintain a specific PDO Driver they can do so
themselves and publish it on PECL, same as how CUBRID (and others) does
currently.
That is true, however it's mysqlnd the part that deals with the network
protocol, which they wouldn't be able to modify from PECL. That said,
I'm not an expert on mysql/maria, but I also doubt the changes are
significant enough that they need a separate driver.
