Ah, thanks. I did not consider the psql shortcut. I agree that
including the input types would be a good idea. But just doing that
may not be enough IMO as the character policy used on our website for
the HTML docs makes that harder to parse. What if we switched the
third column to have one line per operator with its input type, and
use morerows to show the full set of indexable operators one opclass
is associated with? Contrary to wait events, those tables don't
change much. I am wondering as well if we should consider mentioning
\dAo on all those pages, say at the bottom of each table listing the
opclasses.
