Does SQL92 say no wormholes? Is it a major pain to code this? I've got
no complaints as I can see ways to do it from the application level.
Are there any thoughts/plans on providing cross database/instance
connectivity? I can see a use (can't we all) where a mostly read-only set
of tables with fewer accesses sets on a lightly loaded server. Or the
personel department (erh... human resources) has a database that the
shipping department needs some information from for POC at the company's
Anytown facility.
