I think you should do it as a pgxn extension, for now. For it to be in contrib/ or core, we'd need to argue extensively about the names of operators and functions, which will take a while. If your goal is to make this functionality available as soon as possible to users, an external extension is the way to go. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com
