Right! Whatever you decide is totally irrelevant towards the concept of 
what needs to be done. But that wasn't the question and you wheren't in 
the position or asked for making any decisions.

And after this mail I doubt more than before that the input you can 
provide will lead to any meaningful improvement of PostgreSQL. Then 
again, you still have the chance to surprise me. I know by now that 
you're not a programmer and don't know SQL very well. But do you at 
least have some concept of your own, other than URL's pointing to 
someone elses work?
