Hi,

I was wondering if there are plans to extend the window framing clause to allow the number of rows in the frame to be
specified. 

Something like:

ROWS BETWEEN 5 PRECEDING AND 5 FOLLOWING

I did find a comment on the TODO list regarding the framing clause ("Implement full support for window framing
clauses")but the explanation did not mention allowing a number instead of UNBOUND for the frame definition.  

Oracle and DB2 do support this syntax ;)

Regards
Thomas
