You can't drop a busy proc in production to replace it.  Many users would get an error.  This is the same reason views have had CoR for so long. So yes it is a big deal!

Anyway, what I want most are Antony Curtis' stored proc / parser changes (mdev 820 if I'm not mistaken).  I am especially interested in table functions and external stored routines.  

I'd also like to discuss window functions too.  I've implemented them in shard-query and have ideas about how to implement them in the server, but pluggable parser would be really useful here.
