Should the "@>" operator be non-nested, as in hstore, too? As you say, hstore isn't nested, and so this simply doesn't come up there. We have failed to adopt "||" to jsonb in a way that makes sense. We should have adopted it to jsonb in exactly the same way as the "@>" operator was. -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
