So all of this sound and fury is not, as we have been understanding
it, over some fundamental change to the way Pg works, but is instead
some sort of veneer over the face of it?  In that case, why not just
write some user-space application that takes this (IMO useless) TML
and translates it into proper SQL?  You don't need to make any
changes to Postgres at all, it seems.
