I had to rename column "when" into "when_d", as I do not like quoting
identifiers.
Try this query with window functions:
SELECT *,lead(foo,4) OVER (ORDER BY when_d),
last_value(foo) OVER (ORDER BY when_d RANGE BETWEEN UNBOUNDED
PRECEDING AND UNBOUNDED FOLLOWING)
FROM test;
This will give you the ability to lookup needed values.
You'll have to use subquery though, as window functions are evaluated after
the `WHERE` clause.
