I just haven't done that part yet.  The fact that hstore is the likely 
way to do it is why I said it's straightforward, and haven't gotten 
stressed about not having that finished.  I wanted to try and shake out 
some feedback on hook location and how best to deal with memory context, 
both of which might impact this.  Extending the current hook setup I've 
got here to pass data via hstore would mean it needs to pull into core. 
  If there's a better approach for adding a hook that avoids that I'd be 
happy to adopt it, I just haven't thought of one.
