Yeah, okay. That argument works for me. Let's go for option (a), only allow the user to omit the dimension argument if the array is 1-D. We still have the issue that Tom isn't convinced that the feature is worth pursuing -- Tom, would you please elaborate a little on what you dislike about it? I don't see much of a downside (just 3 extra pg_procs).
