Hmmm.  I don't know about that; large numbers of flags is a pretty common 
situation with some types of websites (personals, for example).  I know 
three reasonable ways to handle that, bitstrings, arrays and hstore.  

So I'd say that it would be reasonable to drop it if we had some other way 
to handle large numbers of flags.  Suggestions?
