Isn't it a usefull option to introduce a postgresql-conf parameter to
set the pg-views version? I mean, in a pg 7.x-comaptibility-mode you
would only see the known views with their old content. If you set it to
8.x, you will see the new versions. So developers will get more time to
change their applications from the old views to the new ones while being
able to use new features.
