That argument doesn't carry much water with me, because it's hard for me to imagine a situation where you need to discard one of these things but discarding the other one also causes a problem. I'm also pretty unexcited about adding more stuff to the grammar to cover such a marginal borderline case. Adding unreserved keywords is pretty cheap, but it's not totally free. If we were going to do it I'd suggest DISCARD LANGUAGE PLANS or something like that, but I don't really see a reason to go there at all. Really it seems to me that changing the search path ought to discard anything that might have been done differently had the search path been different, but I don't think that's back-patch material. > Making it part of DISCARD PLANS; and back-patching it to 8.3 where > DISCARD was introduced would be awesome for me. :) I'd need to look at this more closely before committing anything, but at first blush I think that's reasonable.
