I would think about that if there weren't compatibility issues to worry
about, but in practice the pain from such an incompatible change would
vastly outweigh the benefit.

Not sure this is syntactically feasible, or a good idea even if it is

syntactic ideas later on.  (I wouldn't think that omitting ROW is a
good idea either, but the spec says we have to.)
