Just to clarify my personal position: I am in a release frenzy right now,
so I have almost 0 time to read the list. This subject however caught
my attention just because I took part in the discussion before.

Without checking at the archives, the last time this came up I was left
with the impression that the best way forward would be to remove stored
queries from this draft and prepare a followup draft that addressed the
exact same points that you are bringing up. In particular, I definitely
agree that if stored queries can only represent shortcuts for queries
we can specify in CAP they're not much use, as Doug's trivial examples
perfectly showed.

So bottomline is: don't keep them on the account of me wanting them in,
at this point I'm absolutely against them (as currently specified).


Bye,
	Andrea
