SYNONYMs revisited

Way back in this thread[1] one of the arguments against allowing
some version of CREATE SYNONYM was that we couldn't create a synonym for
an object in a remote database. Will the SQL/MED work make this sort of
thing a possibility? I realize since it's not standard anyway, there's
still a discussion or two to be had about how precisely it should work,
but thought I'd raise the possibility.
