The description page lists sufficiently many unresolved issues that
I'd have to call it "not ready for prime time" ... even assuming there
are not any issues you failed to identify.  One showstopper I can cite
immediately is the lack of any pg_dump support.

I could see putting this in contrib, perhaps, but to become part of core
it'd need to be better designed and better integrated.  That probably
means fixing some limitations in the current core code (for instance the
need for the auxiliary-type kluge).

Peter's point that there may exist SQL2003 features that cover the same
ground is also well taken ... we should investigate that before
inventing nonstandard stuff that we'll be stuck with supporting
forevermore.
