Also, though I'm not yet totally clear on their meaning:

COMMAND_FUNCTION
DYNAMIC_FUNCTION

And since users can declare a condition and associate it with a
SQLSTATE, and later use that to terminate a database transaction with
the SIGNAL command:

| If the value of the RETURNED_SQLSTATE corresponds to unhandled
| user-defined exception, then the value of CONDITION_IDENTIFIER is
| the <condition name> of the user-defined exception.
