MySQL drivers disabled the prepared statement API sometime ago because of issues with it. The difference is that with Drizzle we dropped it and have a new design we are looking at. We did not see a point in having code sitting around that was going unused. As far as views go, yes we removed them. Once we have a proper rewrite layer in the tree we will add them back.
