Not a problem if you're willing to use a scrollable cursor. In

row fetched. That enables you to fetch the row previous to the first
non-matching key.



​Ah, no..

Scroll-able cursors only scroll within the result set. If I've got L,N,O
in the data and I open a cursor, WHERE KEY >= 'M'

Then the result set starts with N, you can't do a scroll -1 and get to L.
