+SQL Language Extension: ORDER BY clause can specify expressions and nulls placement
+
+Syntax
+========
+
+SELECT ... FROM .... ORDER BY order_list ....;
+
+order_list : order_item [, order_list];
+
+order_item : <expression> [order_direction] [nulls_placement]
+
+order_direction : ASC | DESC;
+
+nulls_placement : NULLS FIRST | NULLS LAST;
+
+   The ORDER BY clause lets you specify any valid expressions to 
+   sort query results. If expression is consisted of a single number
+   it is interpreted as column number. The nulls_placement clause
+   controls ordering of nulls in result set. They can be sorted
+   either above (NULLS FIRST) or below (NULLS LAST) of all other values.
+   Behaviour when nulls_placement is unspecified is NULLS LAST.

+N O T E S
+=========
+
+ - Index is never used for ordering if you specify NULLS FIRST
+   as a nulls_placement
+ - Results are undefined if you ask engine to sort results using 
+   non-deterministic UDF or stored procedure.
+ - Amount of procedure invocations is undefined if you ask engine to 
+   sort results using UDF or stored procedure in any case even
+   if you reference column calling procedure by number
+ - You can use only numbers to reference columns to sort unions
+
+Examples
+========
+
+
+A)
+  SELECT * FROM MSG
+  ORDER BY PROCESS_TIME DESC NULLS FIRST
+
+B)
+  SELECT FIRST 10 * FROM DOCUMENT
+  ORDER BY AMOUNT DESC
+
+C)
+  SELECT DOC_NUMBER, DOC_DATE FROM PAYORDER
+  UNION ALL
+  SELECT DOC_NUMBER, DOC_DATA FROM BUDGORDER
+  ORDER BY 2 DESC NULLS LAST, 1 ASC NULLS FIRST
