John Sichi commented on HIVE-287:
---------------------------------

@Ashish:  given where we are currently, the keyword concern is valid.

But, I think we might be doing our users a disservice in the long run letting 
them use standard SQL reserved keywords as unquoted identifiers.  This just 
causes interoperability confusion since most other systems don't support this, 
and it makes data portability harder.

(I'm not proposing any immediate action on this, just pointing it out.)
