That's looks funny but can be useful.
Imagine typical usage of LIMIT/OFFSET: pagination of a web-output.
Say, the output is fetched thru "select id,body from articles limit 10
offset 20".
Now, content-admin, surfing the content and looking to the page say 2,
wanna drop all info on THAT page 2.
Guess how it could ease the life for programmer?8)
