How about feasibility to commit this 3KL patch in the last 45 days?
At least, the idea of security provider enables us to maintain a set
of hooks and logic to make access control decision independently.
I'm available to provide a set of sources for this module at
git.postgresql.org, so we can always obtain a working module from here.
The worst scenario for us is nothing were progressed in spite of
large man-power to review and discuss.
It may be more productive to keep features to be committed on the
last CF as small as possible, such as hooks to support a part of DDL
permissions or pg_regress enhancement to run regression test.
