I'd like to see it as an option.

Uh, that wasn't seriously on the table was it?  AFAIR we don't have a
current patch (ie something that applies cleanly to HEAD or near HEAD)
and I have not seen any discussion about it since March or so.

I don't wish to be overly negative, but we have a very long list of
patches that *are* on the table for 8.2, and this suggestion strikes me
as randomly adding a proposed feature ten days after feature freeze.
You should have said the above several weeks ago if you wanted to be
taken seriously.
        regards, tom lane

Unfortunatly I agree. I was kinda prepared to have a shot at
resurrecting the patch if there was some serious interest but nothing
happened.

It's way too late in the freeze now. There's still 8.3...

Have a nice day,

OK.  The email was in my mailbox and it never got addressed before
feature freeze.
