Allow an alias to be attached to a JOIN ... USING
This allows something like
SELECT ... FROM t1 JOIN t2 USING (a, b, c) AS x
where x has the columns a, b, c and unlike a regular alias it does not
hide the range variables of the tables being joined t1 and t2.
Per SQL:2016 feature F404 "Range variable for common column names".
