Do you see any other mislabelings?
I don't but I think that the concept of immutable shall be expanded.
I mean I can use safely a date_trunc immutable in a query ( I think this
is a sort of "immutable per statement" ) but not in a index definition
( the index mantainance is affected by the current timezonesettings ).
So may be another modifier shall be introduced that reflect the "immutable
per statement"
What I'm inclined to do with these is change pg_proc.h but not force an
initdb. Does anyone want to argue for an initdb to force it to be fixed
in 8.0? We've lived with the wrong labelings for some time now without
noticing, so it doesn't seem like a serious enough bug to force a
post-beta initdb ... to me anyway.
I think that an initdb is not required but at least a script, released
only with the 8.0, that will update the catalogs could be usefull.
