Implementers:

Just noticed that the postgres stddev is the stddev_sample formula.  
There are two different ways to calculate this value.
Their difference is very small with large samle size.  It would be nice 
to distinguish the two different versions. 

I also noticed that oracle has stddev_sample and stddev_population. 
This is just a wish list.
