Could always implement GLOBAL TEMP tables that have the ability to use
these kinds of shortcuts.

I revised the idea with MINIMAL XLOG (instead of WITHOUT XLOG) like the
below. I think in this way, we can always gaurantee its correctness and
can always improve it.

I'd like to take a look at fixing the fact that procedural languages do
not check the constraints associated with domain types. I think there
are two separate issues:
(1) In PL/PgSQL, we need to check domain constraints whenever we assign
a new value to a variable of a domain type.
(2) When

Interesting. The posting is certainly appropriate. I know Command
Prompt and GreenPlum have been using this "loophole". :-)
I have several questions in understanding xlog code:
(1)
In RecordTransactionCommit():

We have this in XLogInsert():
/* Insert record header */

I've gotten interested again in the issue of row comparisons, eg
(a, b, c) >= (1, 2, 3)
We've discussed this before, the most comprehensive thread being
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2004-07/msg00188.php
but nothing's gotten done. Unless someone's already working on this

I've looked at the issue of assimilating the options of postmaster and
postgres, which has been mentioned now and then over the years. Basically,
we have five conflict cases that need to be resolved by breaking one or the
other, namely:

That's what I had heard, I just havn't gotten it working yet myself. :)
Believe me when I say that I *really* want to have it working though;

There are some TODO items about allowing spaces in directory names in various
places. I spent the connection-less time on the train today experimenting
with several scenarios. This is the status:
Installing into a directory containing spaces in names works as of a CVS head

I know this is a tech forum and as such, I don't generally plug
