Hello
I am not sure, but maybe is time to introduce ANSI SQL syntax for
functions' named parameters
It is defined in ANSI SQL 2011
CALL P (B => 1, A => 2)
instead PostgreSQL syntax CALL ( B := 1, A := 2)
Patch is very simple, but there are lot of questions about support
previous syntax.
* should we support both - probably yes
* how long time we will support pg syntax? - 2..5..ever years
* when we mark pg syntax as obsolete?
* when we remove pg syntax?
Regards
Pavel
