I see all the major ones have already been mentioned, so here's some
minor ones.
- lack of system-level and DDL triggers
- inability to limit triggers to certain columns
- inability to know the DML operation causing a trigger
- date_part/extract returning floats instead of integer
- parts of the SQL statement (e.g. 'for update of') requiring table
aliases when present instead of table names.
- lack of queryable high-water marks useful for tuning
- lack of an auto-tuner, for that matter.
- inability to log (e.g. long-running queries) to a table
- lack of custom session-level variables (without editing postgresql.conf)
- lack of autonomous transactions
