* Add ISO day of week format 'ID' to to_char() where Monday = 1
* Add a field 'isoyear' to extract(), based on the ISO week
* Add SPI_gettypmod() to return the typemod for a TupleDesc
-* Allow inlining of set-returning functions
+* Implement inlining of set-returning functions defined in SQL
* Allow SQL-language functions to return results from RETURNING queries
several hash buckets could be stored on a single page and greater
granularity used for the hash algorithm.

o Consider sorting hash buckets so entries can be found using a
binary search, rather than a linear scan
faster than a sequential scan it must avoid access to the heap
to obtain tuple visibility information.
+* Provide a way to calculate an "estimated COUNT(*)"
+
+ Perhaps by using the optimizer's cardinality estimates or random
+ sampling.

* Allow data to be pulled directly from indexes
Currently indexes do not have enough tuple visibility information
* Fix priority ordering of read and write light-weight locks (Neil)
