I'm currently trying to get ecpg more in line with the backends parser.
Doing so I found ecpg accepts a syntax the backend doesn't. It's 'commit
work release' which is accepted for compatibility with Oracle. How about
allowing this in the backend, too?

I don't want to sound too fussy here, but does this statement provide
any functionality missing from the SQL92 syntax 'commit [work]'? If not,
then perhaps Oracle users could start writing portable code if they
cared to?

I wholeheartly agree. AFAIK it does nothing else, but ORACLE likes it.
And most users have experience in ORACLE.
