I notice PG doesn't allow shorthand column labels -- it requires the
'AS' operand.
SELECT col1 foo, ...; -> ERROR: syntax error at or near "foo"
For compatibility with other databases, what objections might be argued
in allowing this syntax in the future?
On the 'pros' side I think it eases migration to PG, shortens code, is
similar syntax to shorthand table aliases, and some users might argue it
has become defacto syntax among DBs.
