Actually, the edit window does give you the current line and column in
the status bar, which is good enough for most purposes.

An additional complication AFAICT is that the line number in error
messages returned from PostgreSQL isn't necessarily (or even usually)
the line number as you see it in the edit window - I suppose that for PG
line numbering starts from the body of the function, leaving out the
"create or replace function..." command.

However, I agree that line numbers in the left column would be a nice
touch... +1 for its inclusion.
