Andy, a feature such as this would require an awful lot of parsing on the client side. Considering that the following kinds of statements _are_ supported, I would hope that the ones that aren't are on the 'fringe':

CREATE TABLE, DELETE, DO, INSERT, REPLACE, SELECT, SET, UPDATE, and most SHOW statements.

If your statement isn't in this list, please let us know, because that's a bug :(
