+1 for CINE, just because MySQL supports it.
But before developing, we need to decide how to handle an added object
that has the same name but has different definitions.
Also, developers should consider not only ADD COLUMN but also other
CREATE or ADD commands. The patch will be large, including documentation
adjustments in many places -- it would be hard work.
