Hmmm ...

Better make that
Keyword     | Standard  | Status  |
------------+-----------+---------+
SELECT      | SQL92     | Reserved|
SELECT      | SQL99     | Reserved|
SELECT      | PostgreSQL| Reserved|
WITH        | SQL92     | Nope    |
WITH        | SQL99     | Reserved|
WITH        | PostgeSQL | Nope    |
IN          | SQL92     | Nope    |
IN          | SQL99     | Reserved|
IN          | PostgreSQL| Yep     |

This form allows for greater flexibility in query/views building. Obvious
drawback : the primary key is composite.

Any thoughts ?
