[HACKERS] CREATE TABLE ... LIKE composite type

[Mark Gibson]

Hi,
   Is there any reason that the following shouldn't work:

CREATE TABLE my_new_table (LIKE my_composite_type);

I get the following error (in 7.4.2):

ERROR:  "my_composite_type" is a composite type

With the improved handling of composite types,
will this work in 7.5?

Cheers
