as far as my little knowledge about pg goes, that would be just
another addition to planner. <daydreaming> Say - when there's more
than X % of value Y, and we do set column X to Y, it could add that
'where'. But what if we have more WHERE statements, and they are quite
contradictory, etc, etc. It could actually do more damage than good.
(yes, I do have quite few more 'against' than for)</daydreaming>

I wrote that previous email, while waiting for breakfast, so I guess
it wasn't the best idea in the world ;)
