In a few places, I think "updateable" should be spelled "updatable"
for consistency with the rest of the documentation (although I think
both spellings are actually correct).


===
Allow the updating of views where only some columns are
auto-updateable (Dean Rasheed)

Previously the presence of a non-auto-updateable column prevented all
columns from being auto-updated. Deletes are now supported on suitable
views even if no auto-updateable columns are present.

I think that puts too much emphasis on deletes, and could be
misinterpreted. How about something like this:

    Allow views to be automatically updatable even if they contain some
    non-updatable columns (Dean Rasheed)

    Previously the presence of non-updatable columns such as expressions,
    literals and functions prevented automatic updates.  Now INSERTs,
    UPDATEs and DELETEs are supported, provided that they do not attempt
    to assign new values to any of the non-updatable columns.

Regards,
Dean
