Alex I agree with your assessment, but to my knowledge MySQL is still a
very feature poor RDBMS and at this time still lacks an implementation of
"views". I could be wrong, but that was the case last time I reviewed its
feature sets.

I agree with the recommendation to use views, but I think they are not
available for MySQL users. :)
