Why?
Doing it at the back end has some advatages too:
1. Less data is transferred via the network. Since data is sent in
packets, 100 bytes less can easily mean 1 packet instead of 2 - 100%
better performance. In some cases that's crucial.
2. When (I'm not saying IF, but WHEN) the front end is rewritten, this
functionality is still there.
If several different front ends access one and the same query, there is
no redundancy either
