Re: Fields re-ordered on JOIN with * and USING

Ouch, I'm glad you folks take care of reading such stuff! What you put in
the documentation was much much clearer--just wish I had found it!

Speaking of which, I had looked at the "From" section of the "SELECT" page (
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-select.html#SQL-FROM),
which also has a somewhat detailed section on joins. I'm wondering about
the utility of:

- Adding a link from the "SELECT" page (FROM section) to the page Tom
referenced (which includes a link the other way)

and/or

- Adding this detail to the section on USING on the select page:

A clause of the form USING ( a, b, ... ) is shorthand for ON left_table.a =
right_table.a AND left_table.b = right_table.b .... Also, USING implies
that only one of each pair of equivalent columns will be included in the
join output, not both. *Outcome columns specified by USING will appear
first in the joined results.*

Cheers,
Ken
