BTW, we have two options, if we don't use AS token here.
1. It moves "SECURITY" to reserved keyword.We can represent SECURITY CONTEXT option for each columns quitenatural, but
italso has a pain. It disallow to use "security"as a column name.
2. Another syntax to support SECURITY CONTEXTFor example: CREATE TABLE tbl_name ( col_X_name int primary
key, col_Y_name text default 'aaa' ) SECURITY CONTEXT ( 'label of the table', col_Y_name
IS'label of the column Y', ... );
I don't have any preference between the current syntax and the new one.
