Without making any valuation on this particular tool, I think we should be
very very careful and restrictive about putting such links in the main
documentation.

The appropriate location for such references are in the product catalog on
the website and on the wiki. (I'd be happy to have a link from the docs to
a generic "pl/pgsql tips" page on the wiki, though, if people would think
that helpful -- because that would be linking to a destination that we can
easily update/fix should it go stale)
