  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,

+/*
+ * Hash function that's compatible with guc_name_compare
+ */
+static uint32
+orclause_hash(const void *data, Size keysize)
+{
+ OrClauseGroupKey   *key = (OrClauseGroupKey *) data;
+ uint64 hash;
+
+ (void) JumbleExpr(key->expr, &hash);
+ hash += ((uint64) key->opno + (uint64) key->exprtype) % UINT64_MAX;
+ return hash;
+}

looks strange. `hash` is uint64, but here you return uint32.

based on my understanding of
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/xoper-optimization.html#XOPER-COMMUTATOR
I think you need move commutator check right after the `if
(get_op_rettype(opno) != BOOLOID)` branch

+ opno = ((OpExpr *) orqual)->opno;
+ if (get_op_rettype(opno) != BOOLOID)
+ {
+ /* Only operator returning boolean suits OR -> ANY transformation */
+ or_list = lappend(or_list, orqual);
+ continue;
+ }

select  po.oprname,po.oprkind,po.oprcanhash,po.oprleft::regtype,po.oprright,po.oprresult,
po1.oprname
from    pg_operator po join pg_operator po1
on      po.oprcom = po1.oid
where   po.oprresult = 16;

I am wondering, are all these types as long as the return type is bool
suitable for this transformation?
