WHERE '12814474045' IN (people.home_phone, people.work_phone,
people.mobile_phone)
Yeah, not exactly a common case, but at least in 8.1 this was turned
into a set of ORs. Starting in 8.2 and in current HEAD, the planner
turns that into:
Filter: ('12814474045'::text = ANY ((ARRAY[home_phone, mobile_phone,
work_phone])::text[]))
Which means automatic seqscan. Would it be difficult to teach the
planner to handle this case differently? I know it's probably not
terribly common, but it is very useful.
