Add explicit list of what is covered by sql_safe_updates #9791
Description
Richard Loveland (rmloveland) commented:
Right now our documentation for sql_safe_updates does not explictly list what exactly is covered when you toggle that flag.
This question came up in a recent SQL syntax discussion by the multi-region team. The debate was between gating something behind sql_safe_updates, or adding explicit SQL syntax. When I went to look at the docs for sql_safe_updates, I discovered that there was an example, but not an explicit list of exactly what features are affected by that flag.
Estimated scope of work here is:
- Find out exactly what happens when
sql_safe_updatesis set/unset - Write down the complete list of things in the docs somewhere (probably add it to the existing doc)
- See where other mentions of
sql_safe_updatesare made, and make sure they link to this explicit listing
