TL;DR: Got a review, requires substantial work, current github branch
is slightly broken, will get back to this soon.
Tom Lane sent a thorough review of the patch here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2012-03/msg00655.php
(very much appreciated!)
I have addressed some smaller points from that list in my github
branch, but it still requires a substantial amount of work (in
particular, the bulk of this patch which is the recursion logic in
eval_const_expressions_mutator, needs to be changed to prevent
unnecessary CacheExpr insertions and to store intermediate state in
the context struct).
I got a small fragment of this into PostgreSQL 9.2 as commit
81a646febe87964725647a36d839f6b4b405f3ae. I rebased my github branch
on top of this commit, but the rebase introduced some test failures
that I have not tracked down yet. I don't know if it applies to git
HEAD any more.
Sadly some other things intervened and I have not had the time to
return to hacking on this patch. But I am hopeful I can get it into
shape during the 9.3 cycle.
