I do not like new features / #2982

I am still not convinced that we need this in the main installation. The current solution of file uploading works better than most other parts of streber and I don't want to have another construction site on this side.

I clearly remember how the "mysqli"-support has been added. Although it is an incredible piece of coding and a very cool feature, it brings almost zero benefit to 90% of the users. But it increases the code and already lead to about 3-10 issues (mostly related to installation and upgrading, but also regarding to php5.2). I am not really firm with this code, which makes me a little bit affraid of mysqli.

I am not affraid of your will being bogus. I am affraid of ANY code being bogus. Any feature will lead to issues. And the number of those issues will be higher depending on the overall number of features.
 
I just read the philosophy again. And the first point makes me to veto against this feature.

Any other opinions on this topic?
