If someone writes the rest of the code, I doubt the syntax will be the 
holdup.  But writing an efficient C-store table mechanism is much harder 
than I think you think it is; Vertica worked on it for a year and failed, 
and Paraccel took two years to succeed.   FYI, Paraccel is based on 
Postgres.

So, put up a pgfoundry project and start hacking a c-store table; I'm sure 
you;ll get interest if you can make something work.
