[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

0. emacs -Q
1. C-u M-x sql-product-interactive RET

Now the minbuffer displays the following:

SQL product: ansi

so it you want to change the product, e.g. to postgres, you first have
to delete "ansi".

Likewise, `M-x sql-set-product RET' produces the same minbuffer display,
requiring deletion to change the product.

The reason "ansi" is displayed after the prompt is that the definition
of sql-read-product uses the same non-nil value of the deprecated
argument INITIAL-INPUT as is used for the argument DEF.  The attached
patch makes INITIAL-INPUT nil, thus using only DEF, and also wraps the
prompt argument of sql-read-product in format-prompt, so the default
value is shown as part of the prompt and changing it does not require
deletion.  The patch also adjusts the two callers of sql-read-product
accordingly.
