do you think we should implement some of the functions offered by

Well, obviously we already have many of the functions linked from
that page. I think that if you want to go through them and pick
out a few that you think are particularly promising it could start
a useful discussion. Pointing at a page that includes such things
as CURRENT_DATE, the avg() aggregate, and the lead() window
function is just going to waste the time of everyone who follows
the link. It's not like all of them would be committed in the same
patch anyway.
At the risk stating the obvious, before we look at implementing them we should
see if Amazon would donate that effort.
But as Kevin said, first step is discussion on what we don't have and whether
we want it.
