Actually, this syntax is one of the worst and most dangerous things introduced by MS in SQL2008.

I saw extremely powerful servers brought down by improper use of this syntax.

Not just tables, not databases. Whole servers, with losing ability to connect to master database.

I probably need to write an article about that experience, if nobody did it before.

I think that would be a useful article. Might make people understand a little more about language design issues generally as well as in T-SQL.
