Why can't a sequence of statements between a begin and end be transparently treated as though they were the body of a stored procedure?
In practice, this isn't always all that useful without a real stored procedure language.
Supporting other ways to make procedures is something we've always planned and at some point we will get to it. I personally like javascript and lua.
