I agree, there doesn't seem to be a pressing need to do it now.


OK, here's my final version of the patch for constructor functions. If
there's no further comment I'll go with this.
These function are super, Thank you

Do you plan to fix a issue with row attribute names in 9.2?



Yeah. Tom did some initial work which he published here: <http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/28413.1321500388%40sss.pgh.pa.us>, noting:

   It's not really ideal with respect to
   the ValuesScan case, because what you get seems to always be the
   hard-wired "columnN" names for VALUES columns, even if you try to
   override that with an alias
   ...
   Curiously, it works just fine if the VALUES can be folded

and later he said:

   Upon further review, this patch would need some more work even for the
   RowExpr case, because there are several places that build RowExprs
   without bothering to build a valid colnames list.  It's clearly soluble
   if anyone cares to put in the work, but I'm not personally excited
   enough to pursue it ..

I'm going to look at that issue first, since the unfolded VALUES clause seems 
like something of an obscure corner case. Feel free to chime in if you can.

cheers
