Following this discussion it would seem that Postgres meets the
requirement, but that what you want is that the interfaces you use make
use of the capabilities. As mentioned previously the JDBC driver and the
Python driver(psycopg2) already do what you want. The next step, to me
at least, is take what you have learned and contact the projects
(DBD::Pg, pgAdmin) in question.
