Hello,

This is a feature request that adds grammar for "clustering" indexes.
Users can define an index to be clustering (include all of the columns
in the index), and as a result, a flag is passed into the handler via
a flag. It is up to the storage engine to properly implement it.
Storage engines that choose to not implement it can simply ignore the
flag.

I am interested to hear feedback on this feature and patch. Here is the link:

Thanks
