One thing I notice is that the joined columns are still accessible from
their respective table names when they should not be per spec.  That
might be one of those "silly restrictions" that we choose to ignore, but
it should probably be noted somewhere, at the very least in a code
comment if not in user documentation. (This is my reading of SQL:2016 SR
11.a.i)

Here is a rebased patch.

The above comment is valid. One reason I didn't implement it is that it would create inconsistencies with existing behavior, which is already nonstandard.

For example,

create table a (id int, a1 int, a2 int);
create table b (id int, b2 int, b3 int);

makes

select a.id from a join b using (id);

invalid. Adding an explicit alias for the common column names doesn't change that semantically, because an implicit alias also exists if an explicit one isn't specified.

I agree that some documentation would be in order if we decide to leave it like this.

Another reason was that it seemed "impossible" to implement it before Tom's recent refactoring of the parse namespace handling. Now we also have parse namespace columns tracked separately from range table entries, so it appears that this would be possible. If we want to do it.

Subject: [PATCH v3] Allow an alias to be attached to a JOIN ... USING

This allows something like

    SELECT ... FROM t1 JOIN t2 USING (a, b, c) AS x

where x has the columns a, b, c and unlike a regular alias it does not
hide the range variables of the tables being joined t1 and t2.

Per SQL:2016 feature F404 "Range variable for common column names".
