Immediately afterwards, in that same e-mail, I go on to say: "I'm not asking about WHEN AND here (that was my last question) [Simon quoted my last response to said question]. I'm asking about a subselect that appears in the targetlist." Even if you are right to take "I've acknowledged that the standard has something to say on this that supports your position" as a blanket endorsement of disallowing subselects in all 3 places, I still don't see why this is worth even talking about. That would mean that I said something on January 29th that I subsequently withdrew on February 1st. -- Peter Geoghegan
