1. Allow ORDER BY a Function

   Bruce,
   
   Small correction to the TODO list.    The "allow ORDER BY a function"
   feature already exist in 6.4.
   
       EXAMPLES:
   
           SELECT foo FROM bar ORDER BY upper(foo);
   
           -- or any other expression for that matter
   
           SELECT foo FROM bar ORDER BY  att1 || att2;
   
   It was done as part of the "allow GROUP BY a function" feature.
