I happened to fall down this rabbit hole a few days ago because of another HN thread. In it, a commenter mentioned [1] a talk by Markus Winand where he goes over some of the more interesting additions to the SQL standard since 92, including versioned tables [2] (I've linked to the timestamp, but the whole talk is good).

I got real excited about that feature because I could think of a few tables at work that could use it. Sadly, PostgreSQL doesn't implement it [3] (I can't permalink to the feature but you can search for "T180", "System-versioned tables", "T181", or "Application-time period tables").
