Hello

I suggest enhance plpgsq to simultaneous assignment. Main reason is missing
parameter passing by reference and less readable getting values from
functions with OUT parameters.

Currently I have to write SELECT: SELECT INTO a,b,c out3fce(1)

a,b,c := out3fce(1); -- Simultaneous assignment

Any comments?

Regards
Pavel Stehule
