Also had these fragments as well, if they're still useful. Probably just
useful as pointers as to what else to change to include the docs.
The tests and docs were written from SQL standard, so any deviations
would need to be flagged. The idea of writing the tests first was that
they provide an objective test of whether the implementation works
according to spec.
I'd quite like a commentary on anything that needs changing. Not saying
I will necessarily object to differences, but knowing the differences
sounds important for us.
