Hi Adam,
Thank you for your reply.
I think that the pgcli people are more concerned on features of their tool
itself.
My script feels to me more akin to a surrounding enhancement, rather than a
core feature, hence the complete lack of interest from really upstream.
Also the repo is completely packaging agnostic it looks to me, leaving to
the various distros package mantainers to deal with issues like mine.
I already contacted the debian mantainer, who said it will be happy to
include it and kindly pointed me to the direction of a wishlist bugreport.
That said I will send it to debian bugreport, thanks also to your list of
reasons that make this a better choice.
Cheers!
Antonio
