Description:
------------
For hosting providers it is a constant issue to move users around a cluster. Since most users and common CMS systems assume "localhost", it would be nice to have an option to force TCP mode instead of the Unix socket and force a hostname, but allow the users to pick a username and password they desire. (That's why MySQL safe mode is no use.)

We have created a patch for this issue and would like to see it included in PHP.

We won't add this as a core feature. Instead of patching the code I'd suggest creating a mysqlnd plugin similar to what I described in my blog on http://schlueters.de/blog/archives/146-mysqlnd-plugins-for-PHP-in-practice.html
