Hi Heikki,

The streaming is implemented, as are range queries. I need to bring it up
to HEAD and back-patch to bizgres since... it's not diverged fairly
significantly from that code base.

Two outstanding items are handling vacuum and I was considering having a
bitmap selectivity function but I haven't really looked into it.

Once I bring it up to HEAD I'll post.

Thanks,

Gavin
