Ah, right. I was thinking in terms of having TRUNCATE actually fire the
existing ON DELETE-type triggers, but that's not really helpful --- you'd
need a separate trigger-event type. So we could just say by fiat that
an ON TRUNCATE trigger doesn't get any rowset information, even after we
add that for the other types of statement-level triggers.
Never mind ...
