There are plenty of other things to do with tables that you can't mix
directly into a CREATE TABLE statement (grant permissions, create
triggers, change owner, to name a few) so this would not be a surprise
-- or a hardship -- for users IMO.
As an aside, Jeff, have you considered how this feature would interact
with CREATE TABLE ... LIKE parent_table [ { INCLUDING | EXCLUDING } {
DEFAULTS | CONSTRAINTS | INDEXES } ] ... }? What if someone asks to
include indexes but not constraints? Vice-versa? Will these cases be
handled gracefully?
Cheers,
BJ
