Thanks, I think that is essential for a productive discussion of
the issue.

For me, it would help tremendously if you could provide a very
short statement of the over-arching goal of the current development
effort. As an example, I could summarize the SSI development as:

"Ensure that the result of executing any set of successfully
committed serializable transactions is the same as having run those
transactions one at a time, without introducing any new blocking."

Proceeding from a general goal statement like that, to general
principles of how it will be achieved before getting down to
implementation details helps me put the details in proper context.

I apologize again for coming in so late with strong opinions, but I
thought I knew what "row level security" meant, and it was just a
question of how to do it, but I can't reconcile what I thought the
feature was about with the patch I'm seeing; perhaps it's just a
lack of the hight level context  that's making it difficult.
