And in this scenario, the big thing that a patch provides is clarity on
what you're actually trying to accomplish. Your original ask is frankly
as clear as mud to me - I have no clue what the syntax you showed is
supposed to be doing.
If you were to ask about something concrete in plain English (vs some
unspecified SQL syntax) then you'd be much more likely to at least get
some kind of response about your idea. It's certainly possible to
convince people on -hackers to work on something that you'd like to see
done, but the base prerequisite for that is you have to communicate what
you're actually looking for.
