Hey thanks! I'll try that, sounds promising.

Haven't seen this mentioned in the docs either. So even if it works, would
probably have to try to get the DBI/DBD people to make an official decision
on this undocumented feature. I wanted to check first before bothering them
directly.

I was starting to wonder if I'm weird and the only one to be bothered by
this issue.

Cheerio,
Link.

OK so I'm probably still weird. :).
