[HACKERS] Auto-indexing

[Christopher Kings-Lynne]

Is it a feasible idea that PostgreSQL could detect when an index would be
handy, and create it itself, or at least log that a table is being queried
but the indices are not appropriate?

I suggest this as it's a feature of most windows databases, and MySQL does
it.  I think it would be a great timesaver as we have hundreds of different
queries, and it's a real pain to have to EXPLAIN them all, etc.   Is that
possible?  Feasible?
