Not to dampen your excitement, but the todo list at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.TODO.html
is for *all* todos, those being implemented for 8.2 and those that
people have thought might be nice but haven't done any work on.
Unless something's already been committed to head, or you see
something on the patch list (or are submitting a patch
yourself? :) ), there's no guarantee that anything on the todo list
will be in 8.2. (Or did I miss something? I've been known to.)

Patches welcome :)
