Agreed. There is a sense when I look at patches in that status that they seem like a good idea to someone and could be useful to someone, but the overhead or complexity it would add to the software doesn't seem warranted. It is complex to explain that to someone, and since it is a judgement call, not worth the argument. -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> https://momjian.us EDB https://enterprisedb.com Indecision is a decision.
