This patch changes plpgsql IN parameters so they are mutable.


Makes sense, applies fine, works fine.




How does this compare with PLSQL? I know in Ada an IN argument is in effect a constant. I understand the utility, because I occasionally knock against this restriction, but if it's incompatible with PLSQL I think we should think about it more carefully.

At worst it's an upward-compatible extension, or am I wrong? If it's useful, which I think it is, what's the harm?
