It occurs to me that this might be a place to demo table inheritance too, to ease automating the creation, etc. of the auditing infrastructure :)
It certainly makes the creation of the audit table painless :
CREATE TABLE emp_audit( operation char(1) NOT NULL, stamp timestamp NOT NULL, userid text NOT NULL ) INHERITS (emp);
However SELECT FROM emp will return rows from emp_audit as well! (unless we always use FROM ONLY or set SQL_INHERITANCE=false). This seem likely to confuse things!
