Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-2245:
----------------------------------------

Myrna suggests: "- make getSQLKeywords return all non SQL keywords (i.e. both 
those in the reserved, and non-reserved area). "

This seems very reasonable to me. My expectation of this call is that it returns
information about words that this database might treat specially, so that I 
might
need to put them in quotation marks if I used them as the names of columns,
tables, views, etc. I could see this sort of information being useful if I was 
trying
to write a generic tool, like a DBA tool for creating tables, etc. -- I might 
want my
tool to warn my user that their chosen column name is a keyword in this 
database,
and did they want to choose a different name. So your proposed
implementation seems good to me.


> DatabaseMetaData.getSQLKeywords() contains words that are not keywords in
