I would say yes, if we're going to do this. I don't see it being any worse than trailing commas.
If we are going to do this, we need to do it EVERYWHERE.
FWIW, the way I normally "work around" this problem is:
SELECT blah , foo , bar , baz
In my experience, it's quite uncommon to mess with the first item in the list, which mostly eliminates the issue. A
missingleading comma is also MUCH easier to spot than a missing trailing comma.
