We have array_to_string(anyarray, text) and string_to_array(text, text), and you'll introduce to_string(anyarray, text, text) and to_array(text, text, text). Do we think it is good idea to have different names for them? IMHO, we'd better use 3 arguments version of array_to_string() instead of the new to_string() ? If to_string and to_array is in the SQL standard, we can accept the name changes. But if there are no standard, I'd like to keep the existing function names. -- Itagaki Takahiro
