Thanks. I've had a look. This is pretty much what I did except it handles it 
in SearchBuilder::Handle which is the right thing to do. However you probably 
don't want to have to go through this every time someone wants to set a new 
attribute on the DSN for some database driver or other. It's already been done 
once for Oracle's sid=, now for mysql_sock=, what next, PostgreSQL options=? 
So why not have a general purpose --db-dsn-attrs= switch and 
$RT::DatabaseDSNAttrs string which is just a semi-colon delimited string of 
attribute settings that is tacked onto the DSN?
