nice :)
Maybe we can add function "generate_iterator"
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION generate_iterator(ANYARRAY)
RETURNS SETOF integer AS
$$
SELECT i
FROM generate_series(array_lower($1, 1), array_upper($1,1)) AS i
$$ LANGUAGE SQL;
then
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION array_intersect(ANYARRAY, ANYARRAY)
RETURNS ANYARRAY
LANGUAGE SQL AS
$$
SELECT ARRAY(
SELECT $1[i]
FROM genarate_iterator($1) i
INTERSECT
SELECT $2[j]
FROM generate_iterator($2) j
)
$$ ;
