I want to create a function that receive a list argument and filter
data with IN operator. Example:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.ffoo(list sometype[]) RETURNS VOID

this is right ...

  execute 'select * from foo where foo_column::text in (' ||
array_to_string(list, ',') || ');';

this is pretty horrid. Use = ANY(array) instead of trying to construct
an IN on the fly.

	select * from foo where foo_column = any(list)

Yes, I always forget about using ANY.  Thx.
