This would be somewhat tricky, because our COMMENT support assumes that the object upon which we're commenting has an ObjectAddress, and individual arguments to a function don't, although perhaps the sub-object-id stuff that we currently use to handle comments on table columns could be extended to handle this case. I guess I wouldn't object to a well-done patch that made this work, but creating such a patch seems likely to be tricky, owing to the fact that there's nothing in the system that thinks of the individual arguments to a function as separate objects at present. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
