I pretty much agree with everything you wrote there. But it has nothing to do
with my original objection which was the explicit use of a COLLATE operator
inside an expression.
If you agree with everything I wrote, then I don't understand what
exactly you find wrong with the explicit use of a COLLATE operator
inside an expression. Is there something that can be done your way but
can't be done the current way? Is there some bad outcome that's possible
the current way but prevented your way? Do you just prefer your (as yet
unspecified) syntax on purely aesthetic grounds?
Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that the case of "(x collate A)
= (y collate B)" and similar instances of mismatched collations are made
an error (I've conceded that it may be a good idea, so there's no reason
to re-tread this ground).
