Bryan Pendleton resolved DERBY-4555.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 10.13.0.0
I agree; those line number error message improvements are beyond
the scope of this JIRA issue. If you would like to log a new issue,
recording the experiments you and I made, and the places where we
think the error-handling could be improved, I think that would be
very nice.
In the meantime, I agree that we've completed all the work we
intended for this issue. Resolving.

> The SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE (and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA) function allow import of data
> from external resources. In general, they can process CSV files that created
> with various tools - with one exception: the header line.
> While there is no accepted standard, most tools will include a header line in
> the CSV file with column names. This convention is supported in Excel and
> many other tools.
> My Request: extend the SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLe and SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA (and other
> related procedures) to include an extra indicator for the number of header
> lines to be ignored.
> As an extra bonus it will be help is the SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA will accept column
> names (instead of column indexes) in the 'COLUMNINDEXES' arguments. E.g., it
> should be possible to indicate COLUMNINDEXES of '1,3,sales,5,'. This feature
> will make it significantly easier to handle cases where the external input
> files is extended to include additional columns.
