#433 (ok 4.5) Import/export of meta data (relations, MIME, etc.)

[cecinati]

Relationship information across tables is a very valuable
improvement.
Unfortunately exporting a db and reimporting it in
phpMyAdmin seems to miss that info, as it is saved as a
bare SQL comment.
Do you think it's possible to retrieve that info when
rebuilding a db? maybe through formats different than
SQL, such as LaTex?
thank you

I do not thing that this will ever be implemented as MySQL
supports also internal relations that are exported/imported
correctly.

Michal,
I think that we should support importing everything we
exported. All users won't migrate to InnoDB, and also we
have meta-data like MIME-type that would be interesting to
import.

Hmm, you're probably right.
