This is imho wrong ! 
Please do not preassume results to a discussion that is not over or has 
not reached a consensus.

Some of us (me) where of the opinion that schema must be a hierarchy below
our database. 
Access to different schemas within one session is mandatory.
Non default schemas need to be syntactically specified with:
	schemaname.tabname

So I ask you to please revert the above change unless we reach a consensus.

Don't panic! I did this with the *explicit* mention that it is a
stopgap, and it does not preclude the better long term solution which
you have been discussing. The CVS log reflects this, as does my
announcement to the list.

This will be an unannounced feature in our next release (if at all), so
folks can't claim to have grown fond of it ;)

So, if its a stopgap and won't be announced ... why implement it? *raised
eyebrow* *grin*
