internally is table functions implemenation identical with SRF. Semantically is far - user's doesn't specify return type (what is from PostgreSQL), but specifies return table, what is more natural. What more - for users is transparent chaotic joice betwen "SETOF RECORD" for multicolumns sets and "SETOF type".
