Agreed. > Should we perhaps split that group? Not that I have a good proposal for > better names. We could have a section for transaction-related parameters, and move the vacuum ones into the section for autovacuum so as they get grouped, renaming the section "autovacuum and vacuum". An idea of group for search_path, temp_tablespace, default_tablespace & co would be "object parameters", or "relation parameters" for all the parameters which interfere with object definitions? -- Michael
