I think we should work on generating a lot of func.sgml. Particularly the signature etc should just come from pg_proc.dat, it's pointlessly painful to generate that by hand. And for a lot of the functions we should probably move the existing func.sgml comments to the description in pg_proc.dat. I suspect that we can't just generate all the documentation from pg_proc, because of xrefs etc. Although perhaps we could just strip those out for pg_proc. We'd need to add some more metadata to pg_proc, for grouping kinds of functions together. But that seems doable. Greetings, Andres Freund
