Well - just to make clear, what I want to do:

UPDATE table SET field=CONCAT(field,',username:value');

This works fine for me.

I just want to make sure this will work when the user installs my extensions
on a non MySQL based system.
What I read in ExtDevEval -> DB is that you should use exec_UPDATE only. But
there's no CONCAT available and I would have to do it with PHP.
Maybe I just misunderstood what these predefined functions are for?
