I guess I'm more of the mindset of query hints having as much to do with the stored data as the schema and most hints would probably be a premature optimization or specific to a failing with a specific database version. I do acknowledge that there are situations where being able to ship hint corrections for known issues would be useful, but I can't escape from the thought that those situations would attach an expectation about which database backend should, or should probably not be used with the app. > And that's the proposal on the table, except that you would need to > specify that this is a MSSQL hint, since the hint you're making isn't > of any use to a user of any database other than MSSQL. I'm assuming the current proposal will allow for arbitrary namespaces that are defined simply by a backend willing to look for the specific name. If not, there would need to be discussion about which namespaces are defined by the core and how unsupported backends would register new namespaces.
