Yes.  I do want to be able to scan the page quickly
to pick out the keywords and their use.  There is no reference page.

FWIW

There are lists and tables in narrative parts of the documentation.
The very next section, (PL/pgSQL) Trigger Procedures has a variablelist
of special variables and The SQL Language top-level chapter, which
claims to be narrative, has many tables.
