Precedence: bulk

I had understood that Aurora mainly differed with its lower level internals 
implementation, but that it should look the same from a user perspective and 
thus be drop-in compatible with regular Postgres in practice, such that any 
database schemas or clients that work in regular should work with it unmodified.

What are the main differences you see in Aurora that are surfaced to users such 
that they would have any kinds of impact on pgAdmin compatibility?
