There is now is a discussion of the benefits of PostgreSQL's transactional
DDL abilities on the otherwise deprecated page at
http://developer.postgresql.org/index.php/Why_PostgreSQL_instead_of_MySQL
If someone else could provide me with an Oracle sample showing the same
behavior, I'd like to include that (assuming they won't sue me for it).
Examples from MS-SQL, DB2, etc. would be nice too.
I intend to put this into a separate techdocs page from the main PG vs.
MySQL one, because it's a bit big to push into there, and then just
summarize the issue and link to the full discussion.
