When I looked at how OVERLAY(text) was implemented, I didn't like it at all, so I took the liberty of transforming it to C code and then duplicating that implementation for bit and bytea. I doubt this would make any performance difference in simple cases, but it will have less surprise factor. regards, tom lane
