Subject: sql.el: In interactive sql-<product> command,
	Add C-u to set connection port
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2010 19:37:54 +0200

Package: emacs
Version: 23.2+1-5.1
Severity: wishlist

In production environments the database servers run in multiple ports, like

    M-x sql-mysql

It would be nice to be able to specify PORT number during interactive call, like:

    C-u M-x sql-mysql
    ...
    Port: .....

   "At Digg, we have a lot of databases (...) What we’ve settled on is one
   physical host running four different MySQL instance, one for each pool,
   each listening on a different port."

    * Better SQL buffer names
    * Support TCP ports
    * Support for preset connections
