Well, we have a GUC which controls whether tables get an OID column. If we do the 'secacl' on a per-table level we should probably have a GUC which would default to ON for all created tables. Perhaps someone can chime in here to tell us how hard it would be to allow system columns to be null and not take any storage space, i.e. use HeapTupleHeaderData.t_infomask on a per-row basis and not HeapTupleHeaderData.t_bits. -- Bruce Momjian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
