We actually have some university code implementing materialized view handling
in the planner code. However, I keep not getting around to reviewing &
documenting it.
Jonathan's piece is actually an excellent article on how to implement
mattviews in user-space. Mostly, it just needs to be linked from somewhere
in the PostgreSQL.org pages.
