Is there some way to restrict in mysql that certan field has only ONE ROW
with CERTAIN VALUE X while other rows can have any values but not this
one(so "unique" is not the answer..)?
This can be of course done in application level, but it would just be nice
to know. I would build my application so that only one user can be
superadmin, while others are normal admins or something else.
Of course this restriction would not be enough anyway, because I still need
to figure out what happens in different cases. So actual benefit would be
close to zero, but nerd idealist inside of me requires to know - "we have a
right to know".

From what I have read in the docs, MySQL does not appear to have
support for user-defined constraints, as some RDBMS implementations do.
I recommend you go ahead and implement the constraint in your
application logic.

In my approach webcontent could be seen as a content-tree, where most of the
content would be in one table called "nodes". Content types would be:
- branchwebpages and simple categories(=menuitems that have only subitems,
not content) are the branches
- leafwebpages (those that...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
