Comments on columns?

From
Michael Davis
Date:
Are there any plans to have psql support comments on columns?  For example,
I would like to be able to add a comment on a column of a table and have \dd
display the table comment in addition to any/all column comments.

Thanks, Michael

Find the oid of the column in pg_attribute, and insert into pg_description.
