The problem is that these are philosophical issues that are not normally covered in our docs. What I have done is to add a mention of which option is compliant to the new text. Patch attached.

I found this statement in ANSI SQL 92 - and few minutes searching - it is in generic SQL - today "SQL framework" part and it is enhanced in "SQL/PSM"
