I like this idea in theory ... although it would cause me to need to know a lot more SQL, which is a powerful but hostile language :-/
I care about factoring stuff out into expressions / functions and SQL fails in that regard ...

It's hard to imagine doing this with a ton of duplication. I have written SQL by hand and there are probably more confusing corners than in shell, which is saying a lot!
