>
> * Allow buffered WAL writes and fsync
>
>   Instead of guaranteeing recovery of all committed transactions, this
>   would provide improved performance by delaying WAL writes and fsync
>   so an abrupt operating system restart might lose a few seconds of
>   committed transactions but still be consistent.  We could perhaps
>   remove the 'fsync' parameter (which results in an an inconsistent
>   database) in favor of this capability.

> * Allow finer control over the caching of prepared query plans
>
>   Currently, queries prepared via the libpq API are planned on first
>   execute using the supplied parameters --- allow SQL PREPARE to do the
>   same.  Also, allow control over replanning prepared queries either
>   manually or automatically when statistics for execute parameters
>   differ dramatically from those used during planning.

f7667e4cfa Update DELETE FROM:
< * Allow DELETE to handle table aliases for self-joins
> * Allow an alias to be provided for the target table in UPDATE/DELETE
276,279c276,282
<   There is no way to create a table alias for the deleted table for use
<   in the DELETE WHERE clause.  The agreed approach is to allow a USING
<   clause to specify additional tables.  UPDATE already has an optional
<   FROM clause for this purpose.
>   This is not SQL-spec but many DBMSs allow it.
>
> * Allow additional tables to be specified in DELETE for joins
>
>   UPDATE already allows this (UPDATE...FROM) but we need similar
>   functionality in DELETE.  It's been agreed that the keyword should
>   be USING, to avoid anything as confusing as DELETE FROM a FROM b.

<   By removing comments we prevent the confusion that commenting a line
<   returns a modified value to its default, which it does not.
>   By not showing commented-out variables, we discourage people from
>   thinking that re-commenting a variable returns it to its default.
