Sometimes I wonder if the only thing needed in SQL is to switch the order of FROM and SELECT. I think that would satisfy many people who are bothered by the syntax.

You might already know this but in relational algebra the select is SQL's from and the projection is SQL's select, which makes more sense. I always preferred the linq syntax with the from first too
Its not the only thing needed. To do anything, first you need major databases to implement.
