Besides, proof that it would do no extra harm is hardly a strong argumet for including it. Given how easy it is to add it to any DB that needs it, I fail to see why we should add it by default. Personally I would like to see more things removed from PG and have them added as modules when required. Of course, we would need a proper module system first. -- D'Arcy J.M.
