Question about todo item

I was going through the Todo list looking at the items that are planned 
for 7.2 (i.e. those starting with a '-').  I was doing this to see if 
any might impact the jdbc driver.  The only one that I thought might 
have an impact on the jdbc code is the item:

*  -Make binary/file in/out interface for TOAST columns (base64)

I looked through the 7.2 docs and I couldn't find any reference to this 
new functionality, so I am assuming that it isn't completed yet. If this 
is going to be done for 7.2, I would like to get a better understanding 
of what functionality is going to be provided.  That way I can decide 
how best to expose that functionality through the jdbc interface.

thanks,
