Here's the v1 patch adding examples in the documentation.
I think the problems you noted upthread are shared for all GUCs with type GUC_LIST_QUOTE (e.g., search_path, temp_tablespaces). Perhaps the documentation for each of these GUCs should contain a short blurb about how to properly SET a list of values. Also upthread, I see that you gave the following example for an incorrect way to set shared_preload_libraries: ALTER SYSTEM SET shared_preload_libraries = auth_delay,pg_stat_statements,sepgsql; --> wrong Why is this wrong? It seems to work okay for me. Nathan
