The previous discussion started from the idea that only DESCRIBE, SHOW DATABASES/TABLES, and USE were worth worrying about. If we were to agree that we'd go that far and no farther, the potential conflict with SQL syntax would be pretty limited. I have little enough experience with mysql to not want to opine too much on how useful that would be, but it does seem like those are commands I use right away anytime I am using mysql.
I have no problems paring down the list of cases; these were the correspondences I saw off the top of my head. I definitely don't want to conflict with any SQL syntax. The exact wording/output of the messages can be adjusted at whim.
