Calling regex functions with the case-insensitivity option would be
great. It should also be possible to rewrite replace() into
regexp_replace() by first escaping the regex meta characters.
Actually re-implementing those functions in a case insensitive way
would still be an option, but of course some amount of work. The
question is, how much use case there is.
Not much for me. I might use the regex functions, but would be happy
to manually pass the "i" flag.
However, if someone with a lot more C and Pg core knowledge wanted to
sit down with me for a couple hours next week and help me bang out
these functions, that would be great. I'd love to have the
implementation be that much more complete.
I do believe that, as it stands now in the v4 patch, citext is pretty
close to ready, and certainly commit-able.
Thanks,
David
