Maybe because it would be the same as CURRENT_USER. For the standard, the schema name used (implied) to qualify objects outside a CREATE SCHEMA statement is a schema name with the SQL-session user id. Except for functions and UDTs where each schema has a SQL-path for searching those (the implied schema must always be in it though). There must be an implementation-defined default for this SQL-path (but the implied schema must also be in it). -- Fernando Nasser Red Hat Canada Ltd.
