Extend pg_cast castimplicit column to a three-way value; this allows us
to be flexible about assignment casts without introducing ambiguity in
operator/function resolution. Introduce a well-defined promotion hierarchy
for numeric datatypes (int2->int4->int8->numeric->float4->float8).
Change make_const to initially label numeric literals as int4, int8, or
numeric (never float8 anymore).
Explicitly mark Func and RelabelType nodes to indicate whether they came
from a function call, explicit cast, or implicit cast; use this to do
reverse-listing more accurately and without so many heuristics.
Explicit casts to char, varchar, bit, varbit will truncate or pad without
raising an error (the pre-7.2 behavior), while assigning to a column without
any explicit cast will still raise an error for wrong-length data like 7.3.
This more nearly follows the SQL spec than 7.2 behavior (we should be
reporting a 'completion condition' in the explicit-cast cases, but we have
no mechanism for that, so just do silent truncation).
Fix some problems with enforcement of typmod for array elements;
it didn't work at all in 'UPDATE ... SET array[n] = foo', for example.
Provide a generalized array_length_coerce() function to replace the
specialized per-array-type functions that used to be needed (and were
missing for NUMERIC as well as all the datetime types).
Add missing conversions int8<->float4, text<->numeric, oid<->int8.

Having gotten no objections (actually, no response at all), I can only assume
no one had heartburn with this change. The attached patch covers the first of
the two proposals, i.e. restricting the target list to only one set returning
function.
It compiles cleanly, and passes all regression tests. If there are no
objections, please apply.
Any suggestions on where this should be documented (other than maybe sql-select)?
Thanks,
Joe
p.s. Here's what the previous example now looks like:
CREATE TABLE bar(f1 int, f2 text, f3 int);
INSERT INTO bar VALUES(1, 'Hello', 42);
INSERT INTO bar VALUES(2, 'Happy', 45);
CREATE TABLE foo(a int, b text);
INSERT INTO foo VALUES(42, 'World');
INSERT INTO foo VALUES(42, 'Everyone');
INSERT INTO foo VALUES(45, 'Birthday');
INSERT INTO foo VALUES(45, 'New Year');
CREATE TABLE foo2(a int, b text);
INSERT INTO foo2 VALUES(42, '!!!!');
INSERT INTO foo2 VALUES(42, '????');
INSERT INTO foo2 VALUES(42, '####');
INSERT INTO foo2 VALUES(45, '$$$$');
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION getfoo(int) RETURNS SETOF text AS '
SELECT b FROM foo WHERE a = $1
' language 'sql';
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION getfoo2(int) RETURNS SETOF text AS '
SELECT b FROM foo2 WHERE a = $1
' language 'sql';
regression=# SELECT f1, f2, getfoo(f3) AS f4 FROM bar;
f1 | f2 | f4
----+-------+----------
1 | Hello | World
1 | Hello | Everyone
2 | Happy | Birthday
2 | Happy | New Year
(4 rows)
regression=# SELECT f1, f2, getfoo(f3) AS f4, getfoo2(f3) AS f5 FROM bar;
ERROR: Only one target list entry may return a set result
