Dear hackers,

Would it hurt anybody if operator == is made a synonym for operator =?
as != is a synonum for <>, it would make sense.

If it does not hurt, should it be implemented by replicating pg_operator
entries, or would a backend modification be ok? Operator != is NOT in
pg_operator, so it must be dealt with in the backend. I would prefer
a backend solution, so that == is also always =.
