I've installed various website systems (BBS, blogs, CMSs) over the years, and while a lot of them have been easier than installing Drupal, none that I recall had an on-screen database creation feature.

There are actually lots, so let's not go down this route. I suspect that having security as a priority goal would narrow the list down considerably. e.g. SugarCRM has the *option* to put in a user/pass with create rights. As others have said, this is not something that is going to get in for 5.0, so it's a long way away AND nothing that debate alone is going to help get in. Let's remember as well that many of these threads are started by relative newcomers who often times don't look at the past or are unaware of it (Kieran's posting / info about CS is one example). Getting dragged into these long mudpits of discussion threads isn't useful. Let's try and give useful pointers to why or why not that decision was made, mention that it a) should be in the issue tracker and b) isn't going to get into core until the 6.0 branch. -- Boris Mann
