 Description   

Additionally to having a comment facility for tables, it might be useful to be able to have comments for databases as well (names are not always descriptive enough).

There is already a feature request for this for MySQL: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=25370

Thanks. This is a good idea, and, as it looks, not very difficult to implement.

Although, I'm afraid, we might not have the resources to implement this anytime soon

Checking in on this, is there any chance this can make it on the list for 10.1?

Comment by Sergei Golubchik [ 2013-10-03 ]

I've set Fix-Version to 10.1, but it only means that this task will show up in 10.1 related searches and we will consider it for 10.1 and won't forget it. It doesn't guarantee that this task will be in 10.1

Works for me. Thanks!
