I don't have Tom's wonderfully articulate way of saying things, so I'll say it my way: If you want to do this, you already can already write a query that has the same effect. But supporting the syntax directly to execute a statement with an undefinable outcome is a pretty bad idea, and worse than that, there's a ton of useful things that we *do* want that would be a much higher priority for work than this. If you support Postgres, prioritise, please. -- Simon Riggs http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
