I'm trying to use timestamp ranges to keep track of the values particular items 
had over time, but I'm unable to create a table as follows:

test=# create extension btree_gist;
CREATE EXTENSION
test=# create table v(item uuid, lifetime tstzrange, value text,  
test(# exclude using gist (item with =, lifetime with &&));
ERROR:  data type uuid has no default operator class for access method "gist"
HINT:  You must specify an operator class for the index or define a default 
operator class for the data type.
test=# 

It works fine if I make item a text field.

test=# create table v(item text, lifetime tstzrange, value text,
test(# exclude using gist (item with =, lifetime with &&));
CREATE TABLE
test=# 

Is there any reason that the required uuid access method isn't implemented?  
How hard is it to implement this?

Thanks,

Martin
