Hi!
Any new PHP major release is about setting new directions. I, Andrey and
Johannes, the guys maintaining ext/*mysql* recommend going mysqlnd after
an "incubation" of some four years (5.3x series + dev time).
My concern was also that making mysqlnd the default would make libmysql
support considered secondary and unimportant. As I was assured it is not
the case and the differences between mysqlnd and libmysql flavors seem
to be rectified or in the process of being rectified, and I heard no
objections for this as a default, I'm OK with it now.
Jippie!
Removing libmysql support would be crazy. Not only from a PHP
perspective but also from a MySQL one. For PHP it is a must-have
fallback option. For MySQL the PHP stuff is a nice libmysql test drive.
Not a welcome job among the mysqlnd fan boys, as you noticed. But then,
sometimes we count mysqlnd vs. libmysql issues...
