Description:
While LOAD DATA can use files on a client host, SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE can't populate data to files on a client host. Sometimes people want to dump a query output using CSV format. Yes, we can! But a file is created on a server host only. People often want to crate files on a client host directly. If SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE supports LOCAL option like LOAD DATA, which indicates the destination file is on a client host, it must be greatly appreciated ;)
