I share your feeling there that > there probably exist such options which silently do nothing (or the > wrong thing) in the presence of '--use-bitmap-index'. I'm pretty sure --cherry-pick and --cherry-mark are examples, but I suspect it's the tip of the iceberg. I don't know if it's worth spending much effort on this. It's certainly a wart, but there's a certain amount of "if it hurts, don't do it". The --left-right one bugged me so much just because I thought it _would_ work. ;) -Peff
