The problem is that we're in the middle of a commitfest, so everybody is
busy reviewing other patches (in theory at least).
One thing that jumps at me is pgTAP usage, as Zdenek said. I understand
that it's neat and all that, but we can't include the tests because they
won't run unless one installs pgTAP which seems a nonstarter. So if you
want the tests in the repository along the rest of the stuff, they
really should use pg_regress.
It's not even difficult to use. Have a look at contrib/ltree/sql and
contrib/ltree/expected for examples.
If you want to push for pgTAP in core, that's fine, but it's a separate
discussion.
The other possibility being, of course, that you are proposing citext to
live on pgFoundry.
