That's completely unfair, Bruce. This is a *discussion list*, and hackers are
free to propose and discuss even far-out improbable ideas in the hopes that
someone else on the list can make them work. -hackers is not a clearinghouse
for already-perfected work; that's -patches.
For my part, I continue to the interested in this proposal and would like to
see some performance benchmarks on it. If there is enough performance gain,
I think it would be possible to implement a "logical" order which was
different from the "physical" order. Such a feature would also allow us to
give the MySQLites the ability to re-order columns they keep asking for.
