I'm wondering if anyone can explain why Msql-Mysql modules don't follow the spec set out by DBI . . . specifically I'm trying to write a generic browser-based database table manager, and I'm wondering why I have to special code things for the mysql interface rather than using the standard calls like DBI->data_sources('mysql')

I don't know what you are referring to. To the best of my knowledge the DBD::mysql driver is following the DBI specs quite accurate. In fact I've spent a lot of time to make it conformant.
