> DERBY-4370 made some of the join operations accept a USING clause. This should be documented in the reference manual.
> The JOIN operations section talks about "join clause", which should be fine since that could mean both ON clause and USING clause.
> The sections INNER JOIN operation, LEFT OUTER JOIN operation and RIGHT OUTER JOIN operation need to be updated with the new syntax. We need to replace
> {
>     ON booleanExpression
> }
> with
> {
>     { ON booleanExpression } |
>     { USING ( Simple-column-Name [ , Simple-column-Name ]* ) }
> }
> Perhaps it would make sense to factor out this part of the syntax into a separate element JoinSpecification, and explain the meaning of USING there.
