I've got a serious problem with the way that this patch is being presented. It's being named and described as though it's "just another contrib module", but in fact it makes invasive, undocumented changes to the behavior of the core EXPLAIN functionality --- changes that certainly cannot be claimed to having been agreed to by the community, since most of us probably weren't aware that there was any such thing going on inside this patch. Please split this into two separate patches that can be separately evaluated. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
