I see no particular reason why you should not allow a SQL query on a Status 
packet. We could have a separate sql query just for Status requests which 
does something like "select version()", "select now()" or "select 1". I 
think LDAP has something similar as well...

On the other hand testing MySQL from another script is not a huge pain...
