Depends whether you count such goodies as triggers, stored procedures and
transactions* as being 'simple stuff'. I use triggers and SPs pretty
heavily to enforce data integrity when SQL's standard constraints (or
perhaps my understanding of them) are insufficient.
* - I believe the latest MySQL has at least limited transaction support
