Well, imho the TEMP issue is not identical to END/ABORT. For TEMP, we
are unnecessarily restricting the space of possible identifiers,
eliminating a common and obvious name. The fix is trivial, and the
affected parties are *only* those who use temporary tables and who
chose to *not* use SQL92 syntax, which was always available.
