Based on your comments, I'm calling the patch series returned with feedback. I built the series around the goal of making history maximally reviewable for persons not insiders to commit 4f627f8. Having spent 90% of my 2015 PostgreSQL contribution time finding or fixing committed defects, my judgment of how best to achieve that is no shout from the peanut gallery. (Neither is your judgment.) In particular, I had in view two works, RLS and pg_audit, that used the post-commit repair strategy you've advocated. But you gave me a fair chance to make the case, and you stayed convinced that my repairs oppose my goal. I can now follow your development of that belief, which is enough. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
