Personally I don't see a lot of value in this patch at all, but maybe it is small enough to be justifiable. I am not sure it is complete however, in the sense of touching everyplace that should be touched, especially documentation-wise? I mean, its only excuse to live is that "I expected to find this functionality under $foo", and so I'm wondering how many values of $foo there are. regards, tom lane
