Omitted only has one m.
There's an extra space in "error . (See".
Otherwise it reads fine to me, although I've only skimmed it.
I may have misunderstood: there is only one ON CONFLICT action allowed? I thought the previous version suggested multiple possible targets and actions, this suggests that while there can be multiple targets the action is always the same.
So I thought I could have
INSERT INTO distributors (did, dname)
ON CONFLICT (did) UPDATE dname=target.dname
ON CONFLICT (dname) DO NOTHING;
Did I misunderstand?
Finally there's no
INSERT INTO distributors (did, dname)
SELECT did, dname FROM otherdists
ON CONFLICT (did) DO NOTHING;
example (or similar); do we think people will be smart enough to realise that's possible without one?

So I've committed the patch yesterday evening. I'm pretty sure there'll
be some more minor things to change. But overall I feel good about the
current state.
It'd be quite helpful if others could read the docs, specifically for
insert, and comment whether they're understandable. I've spent a fair
amount of time trying to make them somewhat simpler, but I do think I
only succeeded partially. And there's also my own brand of english to
consider ;)
Phew.
