Yes, that's my ideal, but Tom says I need to write C code to get that
information from RECORD objects, alas. :-(

Would this be the first C piece?  If not, it might be worth doing.

I don't understand the question. But yes, I think it'd be worth doing. I'd like to have functions like:

    pg_record_attrs(RECORD) RETURNS SETOF regtype[]

And maybe another function to return attribute names. If it could returns both names and types, that'd be cool, but I'm not sure what kind of data type that would be.

Does this sound interesting to other folks?

Best,

David
