Monetdblight would be even greater if it would support string manipulations like replacements out of the box. You have implemented a function for the LIKE operator without pcre, how about implementing string replacements as with REPLACE? That would be very handy for ad hoc data cleaning of larger datasets. Now, you would have to setup monetdb with pcre / an r string replacement function.
