This was discussed many times in the past, patches were also offered (perhaps not complete one, but proving that there is an itch getting scratched): http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2002-09/msg00255.php The reaction: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-patches/2002-09/msg00256.php There are other discussions too, if I remember correctly Tom once admitted that the core of implementing the feature would likely consist in letting it work, as the infrastructure is there to do it but it is actively disabled. I can't find the mail now though. So it is really an ideological thing and not lack of demand or implementation attempts... I for myself can't write working C code anyway, so I got my peace with the workaround - I wish you good luck arguing Tom :-) Cheers, Csaba.
