Make me right if I mistake.
When we was developing operator @@, I saw that postgres don't use index in
select if operation has not commutator. But operator with different types in
argument can't be commutator with itself. So I maked operator ~~ only for
postgres can use index access for operator @@. There is no any difficulties to
adding index support for operator ~~. The same things is with contrib/tsearch
module.
But I think that there is not any other necessity in presence ~~.
