So, this is why I always fully-qualify all references to functions,
tables, etc. I also always set a search_path on each function just in
case I accidentally leave a non-fully-qualified symbol.
I would like to have a way to request that all non-fully-qualified
symbols be resolved at function create/replace time and that the
resolution results be made permanent for the function. If I have
several schemas in a search_path at function definition time, this would
not allow me to move dependencies around without replacing the
dependents -- that's OK for me.
