As written in the meeting notes, Tom Lane revealed an interest in
pluggable storage. So it might be interesting to check that.

Thanks.  I just read those meeting notes, and also Josh Berkus' blog on the topic:

I was only thinking to enable pluggable operations on a single, specified heap page, probably as a function of which table owned the page.  Josh's blog seems to describe something a little broader in scope, although I can't tell from that post exactly what functionality that entails.

Either way, this sounds like something I'd enjoy pitching in on, to whatever extent I could be useful.  Has anyone started work on this yet?
