Hello Michael, thanks for the comments on my corrected function.
You could make a proposal in pgsql-hackers but I think 8.3 is in feature freeze so don't expect to see it until 8.4, if it's accepted at all. There's always PgFoundry :-)
I'll now see how this performs in my application and if I'm satisfied with this solution I'll post something on pgsql-hackers of pgfoundry. -- ---> Dirk Jagdmann ----> http://cubic.org/~doj -----> http://llg.cubic.org ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: You can help support the PostgreSQL project by donating at http://www.postgresql.org/about/donate
