Maybe you should ask on -admin or -general.  Personally I thought there
wasn't anything to say until someone did some experiments to show
whether an indexed-column differential is really worthwhile and what a
plausible default value would be.  The idea sounds good in the abstract,
but will it really help or just be another useless setting?
