A few questions about code igniter

That was the point i'm trying to make, there is no standard AFAIK. Even phpMyAdmin only allows you to import using docsql and sql.

I agree with you when you say a framework should make things easier for the developer but i also think a framework should be lean. A quote from Coolfactor, a CI veteran

I use 17 extended libraries to get CodeIgniter to work the way I want. Basically, I’m subclassing the entire framework with my own framework. Works great.

Developers here tend to use the jQuery javascript library which, in my opion, has the same idea: a solid base for all your extensions.
