[teiid-users] additional reserved words for Teiid 7.0

[Ramesh Reddy]

I would like Teiid to take on the support of data types based on DBMS
like MySQL or H2 or HSQL. As we have the supporting DDL based metadata
on the road map, it would good to add any of those keywords upfront
(that we know of from SQL DDL)

+1 for adding the all words from the SQL-2003 list you provided.

Some of which would be used immediately others would be place holders for future features and would help prevent users from using identifier names that will conflict.  There is the potential for breaking existing vdbs though that use any of these words as an unqualified identifier.

One minor issue is that the reserved word input conflicts with our "input" variable group used in update procedures.  Since it wouldn't be used as a table reference, it would break existing vdbs, but the generated output strings for parsed commands would include input in double quotes.
