We already have parenthesized VERBOSE option for REINDEX. So proposed syntax was:
REINDEX (CONCURRENTLY) INDEX ...
REINDEX (VERBOSE, CONCURRENTLY) INDEX ...
Like parameters for EXPLAIN, VACUUM. And completely unlike create/drop index.
So consistent syntax for create/drop would be:
CREATE (CONCURRENTLY) INDEX ...
CREATE (UNIQUE, CONCURRENTLY) INDEX ... # or we want parenthesized concurrently, but not unique? CREATE UNIQUE
(CONCURRENTLY)INDEX?
DROP (CONCURRENTLY) INDEX ...
How about REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW? Do not change?
