Yep that's true but because it's open for everyone you can't expect
from us that we will write all those changes. Hopefully someone of
the postgres developers will say .... let's take a look at it and
let's add some things for postgres in crash-me. And maybe it's
interesting for the postgres people to add an sub select benchmark in
the benchmark. We aren't going to write it till mysql is supporting
it.
