A point very well taken. Way too many developers take advantage of special capabilities of the DBMS their using for development purposes. It makes no matter if it's MySql, PostGreSql, Microsoft Sql*Server, Oracle, or DB2. If they just stuck to the standard then the application would care less about the underlying DBMS and there would be a greater demand for the application. The idea of standards like the SQL standard was to make the dbms invisible to the app. Why are we still shooting ourselves in the foot??
