return query/composite types

create table foo(a int, b int);
postgres=# create function rfoo() returns setof foo as $$ begin return
query select foo from foo; end; $$ language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION
Time: 25.606 ms
postgres=#
postgres=#
postgres=# select rfoo();
ERROR:  structure of query does not match function result type
DETAIL:  Number of returned columns (1) does not match expected column
count (2).


Any reason why the above shouldn't work?  Why does 'return query'
assume that returned composite types are expanded?
