@Marain .. you probably know this: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/user-resources.html . This is same for MySQL and MariaDB.

I_S is a *read-only* database. And if you want to add more configurable per-user limitations such should IMHO go to the `mysql` database. I also don't think (for compability) that it should be more rows added `mysql`.`user` then, but maybe rather a new table specific for such patch (  `mysql`.`user_addon` or whatever). 

But what per-user limitations do you want to add exactly?

Hello guys,
I have a lot of clients requesting some kind of per user limiting based on the
information from the STATISTICS tables.

I'm thinking of creating a patch that will add this functionality by creating
two more tables in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA:
 USER_LIMITS
 CLIENT_LIMITS

They will have some parts of the structure of USER_STATISTICS and
CLIENT_STATISTICS and will keep only values for limits. By default a 0 would
mean no limit.

Do you have any comments about my aproach?

Would you be willing to accept a patch that adds such functionality?

I want to know before I start work on this project if the community is
interested in such enhancement of MariaDB.

Regards,
Marian
