That guess is wrong ... but more to the point, if you think that "simple
and easy to implement" should be the overriding concern for designing a
new feature, see mysql. They've used that design approach for years and
look what a mess they've got. This project has traditionally done
things differently and I feel no need to change that mindset now.
