Thanks for starting this thread !
The Index Skip Scan patch could affect a lot of areas, so keeping MDAM
in mind is definitely important.
However, I think the key part to progress on the "core" functionality
(B-tree related changes) is to get the planner functionality in place
first. Hopefully we can make progress on that during the November
CommitFest based on Andy's patch.
Best regards,
Jesper
