Force NULL for all columns?

[znd4]

Hi, possibly a weird feature request, but would it be reasonable to add a -force-null flag to force all fields to appear NULLable?

It seems to be the norm where I work to use sql.Null* for everything, including for columns that are NOT NULL. There are some arguments I could give for and against this practice, but in general it seems like it'd be a roadblock (at least at my shop) to adoption of an otherwise perfect developer tool.

I'm guessing it'd be simple enough implementation-wise that I could write a PR for this, but I wanted to test the waters first

Hi! Indeed an odd "feature"!

But I'm ok with that! Do you want to give it a try? Should we respect the existing -null flag: whenever -force-null is given, use the style as optionally given by -null as well?

Do you want to give it a try?

Yeah, I'd love to!

whenever -force-null is given, use the style as optionally given by -null as well?

Yeah, i think that'd be the intuitive behavior. I'll make sure to follow that behavior

Hi @zdog234 is this feature still wanted? Do you think you have time in the next couple of weeks to look into it? 🙇
