: I think it's still a good idea to provided the "if exists" clause in a
: future PostgreSQL version for these reasons:
: 1. it's convenient
: 2. it doesn't interfere with existing functionality or
performance
: 3. it makes porting from MySQL to PostgreSQL easier
I second this! It should probably be easy functionality to add (although
I'm no C guru and definetly don't know the ins and out of postgres). I've
made an equivalent in PHP, but it would be much easier if I could use it
within pgsql dump/import scripts. Plus it requires an additional call to the
database.
