I understand postgresql 8.4 should be shipped within reasonable schedule,
but you see, row-level  security will help more people then integration
with se-linux. Please don't understand me wrong, I appreciate what you do,
but for me se-linux is a little "science fiction" (and I ensure you, they
are many like me).
I see a lot of new useful features on postgresql 8.4 and row-level should
be the cherry on the cake.

I hope row level security will be accepted soon on 8.5 and you'll continue
to provide a patch for 8.4.x too.  A patch against 8.4 will help many of
us to start working with this feature on a stable server until 8.5 will be
out.

Thanks for your hard work,

BogDan,
