Class Table Inheritance -?

Is class table inheritance possible with MySQL and Rails? I saw John
Wilger’s cool yet complicated Postgres implementation. I have looked
for a solution, but I can not find one. Are there any plans for class
table inheritance for Rails in the future?

I have hacked a plugin based on John W.'s approach that
automatically
creates updateable views for PostgreSQL. However, it has no tests and
resetting
primary key sequences after fixture loading is an ugly hack. I plan to
release
it after fixing these deficiencies. It’d be very easy port it for other
databases that support aggregate views (MySQL views as far as I know can
be
based only on a single table).
