Hello,
To take into account Tom's comment, I'd suggest a middle ground by
commenting a public and private part explicitely in the struct,
typedef struct {
/* PUBLIC members to be used by callers ... */
/* PRIVATE members, not intended for external usage ... */
} ... ;
One problem is that the members we've retroactively decided are "public"
are in the middle of the struct :-(.
Argh, I did not notice this tiny but relevant detail.
But it occurs to me that there's no good reason we couldn't re-order the
members, as long as we only do so on HEAD and not in released versions.
That would make it a bit less inconsistent and easier to add labels
such as you suggest.
Indeed. SPI-dependent extensions are likely recompiled between major
version, so a reordering should not cause significant problems.
This mean that a simple doc patch is turned into a code patch.
