So, I kind of like Florian Pflug's suggestion upthread of replacing hstore => text by hstore & text[]. I think that's about as mnemonic as we're likely to get, and it gels nicely with the hstore ?& text[] operator, which tests whether all of the named keys are present in the hstore. Does anyone want to bikeshed further before I go do that? -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise Postgres Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
