…is what I'm referring to. Specifically, the factor that many functions are 
quietly replaced with MBRContains(). This makes it, for example, not possible 
to determine with certainty (in SQL) if a point lies within a non-rectangular 
polygon.

I ask because I'm looking at moving a big part of our applications to 
Postgresql, and, well, I'd rather not have to.
