Jan, I would support this upgrade.  I think TCL runs much faster with
the dual ported calls, right?

I would also like to see proper support for nulls in TCL functions as
this has caused us some problems in the past.


BTW, any news on this:  Is there a plan for a way to allow a FK
reference to a table without giving the user select,update privilege on
the referenced table?  This is currently causing us some grief in our
design.
