Greg,
It sounds like we still need to remove the \cwait command, yes??
If we are going to perform that surgery, it probably should be you,
sorry. Others may have input on the internal implementation but its your
name on the tin.
I would love, love, love to be able to use this syntax within pg_dump as
well, so we can create multiple indexes in parallel at restore time.
Anyone fancy adding that as well? We should be able to speed up overall
index builds by x2 using concurrent builds.
