I understand the importance not to break existing usages. It would be
perfect to have a boolean to specify that – and to clarify the docs, since
the example given does not reveal this behavior
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/ltree.html#LTREE-FUNC-TABLE
I digged inside the source code and ended at
`contrib/ltree/ltree_op.c:406` but I don't feel able to do the patch.
