I don't know what redshift is, but I have very little patience with the
idea of burdening psql with yet another random feature in order to work
around deficiencies in somebody else's software. Considering that the
earliest any such thing could reach the field would be 9.4, it seems not
unlikely that the need for it would be gone by next year anyway.
