+1. As I believe you pointed out at the time of the development of
this feature, it has the potential to greatly increase the amount of
memory allocated by tuplesort, but only within the actual bounds
specified by the DBA. There needs to be a clear warning of that - it's
easy to imagine that DBAs are specifying a high value of work_mem to
compensate for the previous implementation's tendency to under
provision.
