DESCRIPTION:
One of great things about mysqlbinlog was that its output was human-readable
SQL, so it was possible to edit it manually or with help of scripts. With RBR
events and BINLOG 'DpiGShMBAAAALQAAADcBAA...' statements this is no longer the
case.
This WL task is about making BINLOG statements to be human-readable (either as
an option or by default
The approach of this WL is to some extent an alternative to WL#38, WL#40, WL#41.
