Description:
I have a product that I will soon be selling that is currently using SQL Server 2000.  I
would like to convert to MySQL using the new Stored Procedures but I am unable to do this
because MySQL does not support encrypting Stored Procedures the way SQL Server can.  I
need to be able to protect intellectual assets.  Could you please add this feature. 
Thanks

Thank you for a useful feature request. Yes, some kind of encryption (or "wrapping", in
Oracle terms) may be useful to protect the source code of stored procedures.
