eg. Someone who just knows how to use postgres could test my upcoming COMMENT ON patch. (It's best if I myself do not test it) Someone with more skill with a debugger can be asked to test unique hash indexes by playing with concurrency, etc.
I forgot to mention that people who just have large, complex production databases and test servers at their disposal should be given the task of:
1. Dumping their old version database 2. Loading that into the dev version of postgres 3. Dumping that using dev pg_dump 4. Loading that dump back in 5. Dumping it again 6. Diffing 3 and 5
