I have a suggestion...
For libpq:
Since OID's are now deprecated, and will eventually disappear,
wouldn't it be a good idea, to have INSERT and UPDATE return
a copy of the tuple that was inserted/updated?
This way, you could have a funtion to fetch an arbitrary named
column from that tuple.
Like: last_insert_value(tuple,'column_name')
With a default to return the primary key?
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
