Hm? There's a difference between extensions and failing to comply with
what the spec says is the behavior of the syntax it provides.

I feel bad that you put so much work into what now seems to be a dead
end (at least until we can get some clarification about what the
committee really intends). But look at the bright side: you learned
quite a bit about the innards of Postgres. Hopefully your next project
will be more successful.
