Update DELETE FROM:
< * Allow DELETE to handle table aliases for self-joins
> * Allow an alias to be provided for the target table in UPDATE/DELETE
276,279c276,282
< There is no way to create a table alias for the deleted table for use
< in the DELETE WHERE clause. The agreed approach is to allow a USING
< clause to specify additional tables. UPDATE already has an optional
< FROM clause for this purpose.
> This is not SQL-spec but many DBMSs allow it.
>
> * Allow additional tables to be specified in DELETE for joins
>
> UPDATE already allows this (UPDATE...FROM) but we need similar
> functionality in DELETE. It's been agreed that the keyword should
> be USING, to avoid anything as confusing as DELETE FROM a FROM b.
