Yeah, maybe better

Allow <type>RECORD</type> and <type>RECORD[]</type> to be used
as column types in a query's column definition list for a
table function that is declared to return <type>RECORD</type>
(Elvis Pranskevichus)

You could link to "queries-tablefunctions" which describes the column
definition business; it's much more specific than "sql-createfunction".
