I doubt it. I think it's just a question of round tuits. I think Tom hasn't felt it worth the effort since you can work around it by rewriting the query, and nobody else has bothered to work up a patch. If you feel like working on it, I think it would be a nice improvement. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
