I can hardly believe that we want to implement this just to be able to
check off a few boxes on the SQL-compliance test. Once you have the
ability to use a fixed list of statements in this context it should be
easy to allow a more or less arbitrary list. Especially if they all
start
with the same key word it should be possible to parse this.

Items like "schema" are a part of the language for a reason. Being
able to create a schema in an area called 'test' and another in an area
called 'development' and yet another in an area called 'production' is
a key feature for real business usefulness.
IMO-YMMV.
