Re: comments in argument list of plpgsql get stripped?

Thank you for your input.

I know about the COMMENT ON function, as I use it for all other purposes, like documenting columns and other database objects. -

Within the function I can also put unlimited amount of documentation in the body of the plpgsql function to document the innards. This kind of comments get stored without problems.

But in order to have the documentation where it belongs to, it would be better to put the documentation for the argument list within the argument list, each comment to its argument. Let's assume you have 30 rather complex arguments or more you'll probably see my point - which might not be obvious in my simplified example.

Best regards,
Ralph
