+1 from me. This is the exciting functionality. There was even a poll
in my blog year ago: http://pgolub.wordpress.com/2012/11/23/do-we-need-limit-clause-in-update-and-delete-statements-for-postgresql/

So the results were (for those who don't want check the post):
Yes, for functionality: 194 (61.4%)
No way! 78 (24.7%)
Do not care 44 (13.9%)
