@@aol(me too).

fwiw, i think "few" may be a bit optimistic here. Don't forget you can do
things like this if you forget what arguments array_lower takes:

db=> \df array_lower
                         List of functions
 Result data type |   Schema   |    Name     | Argument data types 
------------------+------------+-------------+---------------------
 integer          | pg_catalog | array_lower | anyarray, integer
(1 row)

Or this to get a list of all the standard array functions.

db=> \df array_*


P.S. The use of capital "s" is possible a source of some of the resistance. It
seems like a lowercase "s" or something else that doesn't need multiple
keystrokes would be a lot easier to type. Is there some limitation on the
\command parser that makes \dfs harder?
