I think we should just split them off and have them be documented as separate top-level reference pages. Doing that for TABLE is clearly fairly sensible; and as for WITH, the current approach is going to fail miserably anyhow as soon as we allow WITH to be prefixed to INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE. Which is something that was already requested, and I see no semantic or implementation reason not to allow (in 8.5 of course, not now). So I'm thinking we make a man page for WITH as such, and cross-reference it from SELECT, moving the current discussion of CTEs over. regards, tom lane
