No, and I'm not proposing to expose ASC/DESC/NULLS FIRST/LAST or nondefault opclasses (to say nothing of non-btree AMs) or index predicates either. The proposed patch is to my mind just a logical extension of what we have always done --- namely, to pay attention to index column names --- to some new cases that were never exposed before. We could certainly make it pay attention to all that stuff, but I have the same feeling you do that it wouldn't produce readable results. And it would make any compatibility issues a lot worse. 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
