Requirement Feedback
Please clearly and accurately describe the problem scenario, desired behavior, and background information to facilitate timely follow-up by the product team.
[Problem Scenario Involved in the Requirement]

[Expected Desired Behavior] Add custom function feature

[Alternative Solutions for the Requirement]
No alternative solutions available
[Background Information]
During the internal promotion of TiDB and the integration of multiple MySQL clusters, we encountered a large number of custom functions in MySQL instances. From a development perspective, considering code adaptation and modification would undoubtedly involve a significant amount of work and pose a considerable risk for smooth migration. We have faced many obstacles when migrating to the TiDB cluster and hope that the product can support this as soon as possible.
