merlin,
I appreciate your perspective and wish that JDBC didn't present this
problem. Still, with the rapidly growing adoption of both Postgres and
JVM-based languages (thanks Heroku!) - plus the special power of hstore
- I think it would be a shame if such a small accommodation could not be
made.
Other hackers,
What is your take?
Best,
Seamus
PS. Switching to the EXIST() or DEFINED() functions is not, in my
opinion, a solution because they can't use hstore's GiST or GIN indexes.

The point is that Postgres should not introduce language constraints
because of broken driver technology. To move forward in your
particular case, consider:
*) switching to 'hstore defined()' function:
*) hacking pg_operator (carefully look up and change oprname for the
specific hstore operator)
