For most settings, that column would just be a duplicate. For a handful, it would pull in the value of some other GUC. If somebody finds that useful, cool, they can write a view that does it and install it on their own cluster. I don't think that it makes a lot of sense to put it in core, though. My guess would be that more people would be annoyed or confused by the extra column than would be pleased or enlightened by it. I could of course be wrong. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
