Although I would to remove SRF from targetlist, I don't think so this hurry strategy is good idea. We should to provide new functionality and old functionality one year as minimum, and we should to announce so this feature is deprecated - and maybe use a GUC for disabling, warning and deprecating. More, I would to see 9.4 release:). x.4 are happy PostgreSQL releases :) Regards Pavel
