Обсуждение: Value to long for type ....: Columnname missing

Hi,

I think it would be very good, if postgresql reports which column is too small:

    Value to long for type character varying(1024) (message translated from german to english)

Is there a reason not to report the column name?

How can you report feature request?

No, this allows you to report a bug, not a feature request.

What version of pg are you using?  I think later versions do report the column.

Yeah, the same with 9.2dev, +1 for a feature request.
