That seems pretty nearly entirely bogus. What is the argument for
supposing that the word right after SELECT is a function name? I would
think it would be a column name (from who-knows-what table) much more
often. Also, if it is useful, people will expect it to work in more
places than just the first word after SELECT --- for instance, somebody
who didn't realize what a kluge it was would expect it to also work
right after a top-level comma after SELECT. Or probably after a left
parenthesis in the SELECT list. Etc.
