Kim Haase commented on DERBY-4518:
----------------------------------

The spec is very clear! I do have a couple of questions about the Documentation 
section.

The "SELECT statement" topic already includes the ORDER BY clause. Are other 
changes needed? I would guess that the "Requirements for updatable cursors and 
updatable ResultSets" section would not change (that is, ORDER BY is still not 
allowed).

What changes are needed for the "SelectExpression" topic? Can the FROM clause 
now be followed by ORDER BY, result offset, and fetch first clauses?

The "INSERT statement" topic refers to both a "VALUES list" and a "multiple-row 
VALUES expression". I think that after some discussion a few years ago it was 
agreed to use the term "VALUES expression" generally rather than "VALUES 
clause" or "VALUES list". Would it be okay to combine these into "a single-row 
or multiple-row values expression"?

> to subqueries and view. This should be documented.
