I think this one is intentional. This alias won't change the query behavior or
the field names so it's good to avoid extraneous entries. It's true that you
then won't find something matching "AS bar", but it's not something you can
rely on anyway.
If you first execute "select * from t1 as foo" and then "SELECT * FROM t1 AS
foo" then you won't find anything matching "AS foo" either. There isn't even
any guarantee that the stored query text will be jumbled.

IMHO same as above.

Agreed.

Agreed.
