Description:
------------
It was understood that mysqlnd would not be enabled by default in 5.3. As far as I am aware it is only required if MySQL is being used and many sites nowadays use many of the other alternatives, so enabling a third database should not be forced on us. SQLite is the built in default and a second database should be our own choice.

Time flies, and there are no more Windows installers (.msi)
delivered anymore; therefore I'm changing the package to
configuration issues.

Anyhow, as of PHP 5.3 the MySQL Native Driver is enabled by
default on Windows. As I understand it, this is done because
mysqlnd can't be built as DLL, so enabling/disabling it requires
building of PHP. Many developers require the driver, so it makes
sense to enable it by default. For those who don't, the overhead
seems to be bearable.

Closing as WONTFIX per my comment above.
