Nope, no good. This is what I started with last time and the
refactoring attempt at WITH is just too massive. As for CONNECT BY,
PostgreSQL does not want the syntax, they want ANSI/ISO WITH
[RECURSIVE]... so even starting there isn't great.

This is really something that needs to be decided on before
implementation... or it will probably never get in.
