And my #1 was to just yank the function. mysql_change_user() would be useful to just about exactly 0 people if it could only act on non-persistent connections. The whole purpose of the change_user() function and why Monty added it to MySQL was to allow people to use persistent connections on a shared server. The change_user() function would be called implicitly on a mysql_pconnect() so even a site with 1000 different mysql users accessing different databases could re-use a single persistent mysql connection. The user-level mysql_change_user() function I put in isn't all that useful, but I wanted to test that it worked and figured it didn't hurt to give people access to it. The useful part is integrating it into pconnect. I like the approach of simply removing the username/password from the hashed-details and always doing a change_user() on a pconnect. That shouldn't be hard to do and I will take a whack at it today. -Rasmus
