Another issue with LOAD DATA is the location of character set handling. As I understand it, the drizzle server is all utf-8 with translations between utf-8 and local character sets handled client side. The goal, I presume, is to eliminate all character set conversion code from the server. If this is the case, shipping files encoded with local character sets to the server for processing is a serious problem, requiring character set tracking and conversion in multiple locations.
