Comment (by djbug):

 I'll add one more thing to the above discussion:

 Based on my tests, the `text_pattern_ops` does not use index scan with `<
 <= > >=` operators. So the point about requiring 2 index is questionable.
 It's possible that I'm doing something wrong and would love to have
 someone verify this before coming to a conclusion.

 According to PG docs, the following operators are supported by
 `text_pattern_ops`:

 {{{

 "btree";"text_pattern_ops";"=(text,text)"
 "btree";"text_pattern_ops";"~<~(text,text)"
 "btree";"text_pattern_ops";"~<=~(text,text)"
 "btree";"text_pattern_ops";"~>=~(text,text)"
 "btree";"text_pattern_ops";"~>~(text,text)"

 }}}
