SP are good, but ....

Hi !

Last week i read all the stuff about SPs.

First of all: SP are definitely usefull ! I use them often and
regularly, they increase speed and security.

But: there are still some things missing in the standard sql or others
which are really a need like full support of unions in any place they
should be supported like

* create table x as select ... union select ....  or
* create view as select distinct .... union select ....


I think it would be better to enlarge and accomplish SQL-Standard,
before thinking of the rather complex area of SPs
