Thank you! I had been working on some other changes myself, and merged
most of your changes. I give you v8.

Good.

I changed these to link to glossary-tuple; that entry already explains
these two other terms, so this seems acceptable.

Ditto.

I changed Unique Index into Unique Constraint, which is supposed to be
the overarching concept. Used that in the definition of primary key.

Did that for most I found, but I expect that some remain.

I think we should not tag those.
I fixed the definition of global object as mentioned previously. Also
added "client", made "connection" have less importance compared to
"session", and removed "window frame" (made "window function" refer to
"partition" instead). If you (or anybody) have suggestions for the
definition of "client" and "session", I'm all ears.
I'm quite liking the result of this now. Thanks for all your efforts.
