Dear PostgreSQL Development Team,

I am writing to propose the development of native data masking and anonymization features within PostgreSQL. As a long-time user of PostgreSQL, 

I have observed a growing need for efficient and secure data handling, particularly in compliance with regulations like GDPR

This requirement already seems to be well served by extensions. pg_anonymize, for instance, uses the meta data tools available in the database, like security labels, to manage the values returned to users.

Is there any functionality, or usability, in this area which you believe can't be delivered by an extension? 

Regards 

Alastair
