Tough. Once we accept something into core, we're stuck maintaining it
forever. We shouldn't do that unless we're absolutely confident the
design is solid. We are not close to having consensus on this. If
somebody has a reason for accepting only core PostgreSQL and not
add-ons, it's either a stupid reason, or it's because they believe
that the core stuff will be better thought-out than the add-ons. If
it's the latter, we shouldn't disappoint.
