I have no opinion as to the patch itself (other than the fact that
it's a not bug fix), but I think this patch should be reverted
because it's (a) after feature freeze, (b) had no discussion on
hackers (or patches), (c) is not a bug fix. IMO rules can be bent but
there should always at least be discussion before a new feature is
committed after feature freeze and definitely after beta. Otherwise,
the rule appears to be if you can get it in somehow, it's in.
Again, I have no opinion regarding the patch itself, and these issues
are regardless of who commits or submits. Personally, I regard Jan as
a helpful guy and a solid coder who has contributed a lot to
PostgreSQL in the past and I'm sure will contribute even more in the
future.
