[James Briggs <james.briggs@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jared.
I read your pg link in detail a couple of times and this could be interesting for MySQL users,especially those implementing large time-series databases and some multi-tenant scenarios.

Can you write up the jira as requested and I'll comment more there?
(Note that example 11.3 can be accomplished in both pg and MySQL usingNULLs in a unique index, but the pg partial index allows the original data valuesto be used without a NULL work column, so might be slightly more convenient/obvious.)
 Thanks, James Briggs.

No such plans at the moment.
What do you you need them for?

To suggest a new feature, you can create a task at jira.mariadb.org
(presuming such a task doesn't exist yet).

But a mailing list is a better place if you want to start a discussion.
If, for example, you'd like to show valid use cases for partial indexes
or explain why it's an important feature to have :)
