Humm; it would be nice if you could use the new RETURNING construct
that's been introduced in 8.2, i.e. something like:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM (
DELETE FROM foo RETURNING 1) x;
However PG doesn't seem to support this. It seems logical to support
this construct now that RETURNING has been incorporated. There's
probably something obvious that I'm missing here though.
