Description
I think it would be nice to have better string concatenation, using the + operator:
id + "abc"
From my understanding, this is not really a standard operator, so only some databases support it:
- sql server supports it https://database.guide/6-ways-to-concatenate-string-and-number-sql-server/
- oracle sql and mysql doesn't support it, but they uses
||https://www.sqlbook.com/sql-string-functions/sql-concatenate/

The issue names CESQL but no file or test. Start by locating the CESQL operator definitions and existing verification for expression behavior, then clarify the supported concatenation syntax and operand behavior; done requires an agreed specification change and a way to verify it.
