Hi,

I a little study on DejaNews a large discussion (October 1999) about new 
fmgr and functions which return tuples. (IMHO 'function' is not good name 
for this, better is 'procedure'.)

A question, is this feature planned for 7.1 and work on this anyone?

IMHO it not needs change current fmgr code, it needs only RTE code (parser
and transformStmt) and executor code change (executor call myfunc() and this 
function create temp table and this table use executor as standart table.)  
(..it is really simplification :-)

Or is other idea?
