OK.  Those functions are in the docs.  I didn't relate those functions 
and this todo item together.

By 'in/out interface for TOAST columns' I thought this item dealt with 
adding large object like functions to read/write/append to TOAST column 
data.  I know that has been talked about in the past on hackers.  But I 
don't see it on the todo list.  Has that been done?

thanks,
