If memory serves (and it may not - I'm practically brain dead from
reviewing a large pgAdmin patch all day) - much of the 'shooting down'
was at the suggestion that pgAdmin (and the like) should stop using
the catalogues directly and should use newsysviews instead. I still
maintain that'll never happen, but that doesn't mean that newsysviews
wouldn't be useful for other classes of user. Perhaps pgsql-general
would be a better place to poll.
