Move mysql databases to user's home dir

[alessandro123]

Any drawback to move mysql databases to user's homedir?
For example in: /home/myuser/mysql/db1

I'm running out of space in /var filesystem and moving database should be very simple with this like in database_create_post.sh:

mv /var/lib/mysql/$database
ln -s /home/$username/mysql/$database /var/lib/mysql
