Another new year by Jewish calendar. What do I wish for the following year?

1. World peace
2. Good health to all
3. Multi-core execution for queries

After having evaluated a few columnar databases, and having seen how a single query gets 24 cores busy, I can't look at MySQL the same way again. The fact that a single query consumes a single core only doesn't seem right in the year 2014. Shard-query is a cool application-level attempt to solve the above; I would like to see stuff like this implemented inside the server (or inside the storage engine where possible).

None of my wishes in previous years [2010], [2011], [2012], [2013] came true (and mostly gone worse). I'm still willing to settle for two out of three.
