what would [default] insert here?
A constant, a function, anything you want. I have a function to create
rules of insert an update on views that have the same columns that the
tables that its represent. In this case, my [default] is the default value
for the column of the table.
COALESCE function only choose the second argument when the first is
null. An alias to "IF $1 IS NULL THEN $2 ELSE $1".
the default of the view or the default of the underlying table?
B.
