What's wrong with these docs?
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9/static/catalogs.html
And when it comes to statistics views (pg_stat/pg_statio), don't forget
most of the columns correspond to a function - just display the view
definition and search for documentation for each function separately.
It'd be nice to have the documentation for each view too, not for each
function only, but on the other hand that would be redundancy.
