What about "DEFAULT MY_UDF((SELECT VAL FROM MY_PROC), GEN_ID(MY_GEN, 1))"

I'd rather prefer to see Vulcan Beta released. But given that the changes
are very local and if the feature requesters are keen to either accept
constants/parameters only in DEFAULT UDFs or recover from unrestorable
backups, I have no objections.
