Sure. If you propose an alternative ;) >Firstly, it looks horrible. And what's to stop me having "SELECT true >AS >do" in the where clause (as per your UPDATE objection)? A syntax error. DO is a reserved keyword. Update is just unreserved (and thus can be used as a column label). Ignore is unreserved with the patch and was unreserved before. We obviously can make both reserved, but of so we have to do it for real, not by hiding the conflicts >Shouldn't UPDATE be a reserved keyword anyway?
