-- on-disk bitmaps and composite indexes (due out for Bizgres in about a
month)
-- More table partitioning stuff
-- materialized view support
-- streams (per TelegraphCQ)
-- database ASSERTIONS
-- clustering (SlonyII)
-- multi-threaded/process query execution (i.e. one query, multiple
processors)
-- more robust message queing
-- SQL99 TYPES (aka Packages)
-- Recursive Joins
-- MERGE
-- interactive/automated database performance tuning
-- index-only access
-- automated creation of updatable views

Hmmm, I don't think so. We will eventually, but there's still plenty of
features left.
