PostGIS is probably what I'm going to experiment in the future. The
only problem is that it's really big for a very basic need.
With my current method, I don't even have to create a new column: I
create directly a functional index so it's really easy to use.
Using PostGIS requires to create a new column and triggers to maintain
it and install PostGIS of course. That's why it was not my first
choice.

Thanks for your answer.
