I need some help from those that patrol the forums in great detail. I'm looking for a thread with a really difficult question about SQL Server that we never answered adequately. Something along the lines of "Why does SQL Server do this" or "How does the engine or query parser handle this"? Has anyone seen a thread like that?

I am reminded of the "Singelton Select vs Cursor" debate that never received an adequate treatment.

What about the question...."Where part 2 of the famous Trees and Hierarchies article Rob?"
It seems to qualify.....

I have the opportunity to submit threads to the SQL Server development team. As you can imagine I'm going to be fairly strict in what I forward them. If you find a thread that may be appropriate to get a response from them, please email it to me or post a link to it here.

I think we've had some where the execution plan was different even though the indexes and queries were the same on two different boxes. I can't point you at a specific one, but I bet a search on execution plan might turn up something.

Isn't that just where the auto-parameterization of SPs means that it generates an execution plan that suitable for any parameter value, but worse for the particular value you're giving it?
