Feature Request: Multiple SQL user names

[Yaxa]

(cross posted here as requested in the response to my ticket)

My current host imposes a max_query limitation of 50,000 queries, but allows for multiple SQL user accounts to be created and used. It would be nice if IP.Board supported the option of spreading queries among multiple SQL user names without the need for modifications.

While, for a small board, 50,000 queries is enough for everyday usage, it's easy to hit that quota running maintenance tasks.

This requires essentially editing one line in your conf_global.php file.

I don't see the usefulness in adding this into board as a feature, when it is very simple to change currently -- and this type of restriction is not popular among the boards I see.

I've seen people add to their conf_global something like (with all users having the same password)

$INFO['sql_user'] = $array[ array_rand( $array ) ];

$array = array( 'USER1', 'USER2', 'USER3' );
