What I was hoping to get out of this was to resolve some of the weird
precedence hacks that were blamed on postfix operators. But building on
your patch, the best I could achieve was
-%nonassoc IDENT GENERATED NULL_P PARTITION RANGE ROWS GROUPS PRECEDING
FOLLOWING CUBE ROLLUP
+%nonassoc IDENT PARTITION RANGE ROWS GROUPS PRECEDING FOLLOWING CUBE
ROLLUP
which is a pretty poor yield.
Maybe this isn't worth it after all.
