Any chance of getting a TODO added that would provide the option of
having the optimizer pick join order when you're using the ANSI join
syntax?
IMHO I think it's bad that using the ANSI syntax forces join order; it
would be much better to come up with a custom syntax for this like
everyone else does. But I'm sure people won't want to change the
existing behavior, so special syntax to do the opposite is almost as
good.
