I couldn't disagree more.
If we were to implement anything, it'd be PL/PSM
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL/PSM). I'm sure it's as
bizarre and
quirky as anything else the SQL committee has brought forth,
but it's at
least a standard(ish) language.
So we'd choose a bizarre and quirky language instead of
anything better just because it's standard. I'm sure current and
prospective users will surely prefer a bizarre and quirky language
that is standard approved, rather than a modern, comfortable,
easy-to-use, that is not embodied by the ISO. No doubt ^_^
SQL/PSM is used in >>>DB2<<<, >>>Sybase Anywhere<<<, MySQL,
That's a way better argument that it's standard :)))
Still, I think postgres is in the position of attracting more
Oracle than DB2+Sybase+MySQL users
