So ... I want to go ahead and commit Dilip's v4 patch, or something very like it. Most people were initially supportive. Tom expressed some opposition, but it sounds like that was mostly to the discussion going on and on rather than the idea per se. Andres also expressed some concerns, but I really think the problem he's worried about is something slightly different and need not block this work. I note also that the v4 patch is designed in such a way that it does not change any view definitions, so the compatibility impact of committing it is basically nil. Any strenuous objections? -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
