Re: numeric/decimal docs bug?

Are there other cases where the pgsql docs may say unlimited where it might 
not be?

I remember when the FAQ stated unlimited columns per table (it's been 
corrected now so that's good).

Not asking for every limit to be documented but while documentation is 
written if one does not yet know (or remember) the actual (or even 
rough/estimated) limit it's better to skip it for later than to falsely say 
"unlimited". Better to have no signal than noise in this case.
