For more information on RETURNING for INSERT statements, read a little
of this from the PostgreSQL documentation:

   http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/sql-insert.html

 From what I can tell this is unique to PostgreSQL. I really want this
functionality in MySQL. Where do I go to ask for it?
