My vote would be to redefine the existing pg_input_error_message() function to return a record, but I recognize that this would inflate the patch quite a bit due to all the existing uses in the tests. If this is the only argument against this approach, I'm happy to help with the patch. -- Nathan Bossart Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com
