Re: [PATCH] Proposal for HIDDEN/INVISIBLE column

Hi again,

> So all in all, -1. [...]

Here is something I would like to add:

1. As far as I know, "all the rest of DBMS have this" was never a good
argument in the PostgreSQL community. Generally, using it will turn people
against you.
2. I recall there was a proposal of making the SQL syntax itself
extendable. To my knowledge, this is still a wanted feature [1]. In theory,
that would allow you to implement the feature you want in an extension.
