  1. Make group_similar_or_args() reorder clause list as little as possible

  2. Allow usage of match_orclause_to_indexcol() for joins

  3. Skip not SOAP-supported indexes while transforming an OR clause into SAOP

  4. Remove the wrong assertion from match_orclause_to_indexcol()

  5. Teach bitmap path generation about transforming OR-clauses to SAOP's

  6. Transform OR-clauses to SAOP's during index matching

  7. Fix the value of or_to_any_transform_limit in postgresql.conf.sample

  8. Transform OR clauses to ANY expression

  9. MergeAttributes code deduplication

  10. SEARCH and CYCLE clauses

  11. Improve estimation of OR clauses using extended statistics.

  12. Teach btree to handle ScalarArrayOpExpr quals natively.

  13. Revise collation derivation method and expression-tree representation.

  14. Instead of trying to force WHERE clauses into CNF or DNF normal form,

Hi!

Let me join the review process.

I am no expert in execution plans, so there would not be much help in doing 
even better optimization. But I can read the code, as a person who is not familiar 
with this area and help making it clear even to a person like me.

So, I am reading v25-0001-Transform-OR-clauses-to-ANY-expression.patch that 
have been posted some time ago, and especially transform_or_to_any function.

Do not think that removing empty line should be part of the patch

Guess using unicode double quotes is not the best idea here... 
   
Now to the first part of  `transform_or_to_any`
