Re: Hints WAS: Index Tuning Features

Mark,

First off, I'm going to request that you (and other people) stop hijacking 
Simon's thread on hypothetical indexes.   Hijacking threads is an 
effective way to get your ideas rejected out of hand, just because the 
people whose thread you hijacked are angry with you.  

So please observe the thread split, thanks.

Something "better than Oracle".

Since you're the one who wants hints, that's kind of up to you to define. 
Write a specification and make a proposal.
