Than again we're no better than the other DB's. The standard
excludes $ from any character class. Oracle and others
violate the standard by allowing them in identifiers while we
alone violate it by allowing them in operators. Well, at

I would've expected you, Tom, to suggest removing it from the
operators as well :-)
