As we still to still discuss the syntax: is there a proposal for how a
function based syntax would look like?
CREATE FULLTEXT CONFIGURATION myfts LIKE template_cfg AS DEFAULT;
just seems so much more SQL-like than:
SELECT add_fulltext_config('myfts', 'template_cfg', True);
I admit, that's a very simple and not thought through example. But as
long as those who prefer not to extend the grammar don't come up with a
better alternative syntax, one easily gets the impression that extending
the grammar in general is evil.
In that proposed syntax, I would drop all "=", ",", "(", and ")". They
don't seem necessary and they are untypical for SQL commands. I'd
compare with CREATE FUNCTION or CREATE SEQUENCE for SQL commands that
do similar things.
Yup, I'd second that.
