Thank you very much.

I think that Vik Fearing's patch about "Implement <null treatment> for
window functions" is much clear, better and has a chance to be committed.
For me it's not important which patch will go into PostgreSQL, because it's
a much needed feature.

In mine patch, there is also a feature about using negative indexes, to be
able to reverse order in exact same window frame for "FROM FIRST/FROM LAST",
but I am not sure, is such non-standard usage is acceptable (it's the same
as some array functions in programming language), if it's acceptable, it
can be easy ported to Vik's patch.

I am thinking also to concentrate on Vik's patch, if it has a clear design
point of view, clear design, I can withdraw mine patch.
