Hello hackers,
Is it possible to commit the patch from the previous letter?
It was sent before the feature freeze, introduces no new feature (only
syntax change discussed in this thread and not implemented due to lack
of a time of the author) and can be considered as a fix to the
committed patch (similar to the second round in "sequence data type").
