I'll take a look.

Would you post your whole to-do list for roles?

Also, what do we have in the open items list? The current list at
http://candle.pha.pa.us/cgi-bin/pgopenitems is outdated. I'd correct it
as:

Done:
integrated auto-vacuum (Alvaro)
fix pg_autovacuum O(n^2) behavior
shared dependency (Alvaro)
interval improvements (Michael Glaesemann)

Not going to happen in 8.1 AFAIK:
column-level triggers (Greg)
config file I/O? (Andreas)
table partitioning (Simon)
concurrent vacuum (Hannu)
add better control over partial page writes

Patch awaiting review:
ICU locale patch (Palle)
Win32 signal handling patch (Magnus)
dbsize functions from /contrib? (Andreas)
COPY performance improvements (greenplum)
move /contrib/reindexdb into main tree?
misc autovacuum enhancements

Unknown (to me) status:
terminate backend fix?
fix pg_dump --clean for roles
WAL improvements (Simon)
backpatch E'' to 8.0.X, 7.X?
