Hi Tomas!
Yup, I'd also be glad to see this feature. PostGIS folks are using their geometry (sortsupport was developed for this)
withobject id (this disables sort build).
It was committed once [0], but then reverted, vardata opclasses were implemented wrong. Now it's on CF[1], Bernd is
activelyresponding in the thread, but currently patch lacks tests.
Thanks for raising this!
Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
