`mysql` will use `$MYSQL_HOST` as the default host but `mysqldump` does not. It should. |

Why should it, is it documented somewhere? And why specifically mysqldump, out of all client programs? |

For consistency reasons. If mysql does it, why not mysqldump? |

|
But then, why not mysql_upgrade, or mysqltest, or mysqladmin, etc? |

By all means. I don't think it should be restricted to mysqldump, just thats where I encountered the inconsistency. |

Okay then, I've changed it to a request for all client programs |
