Hang on... You prefer sequential scans because indexes make your
database too slow, but you don't want a sequential scan now? What
kind of solution do you expect then? An oracle maybe?

You will need an index if this query is too slow for you, or you will
have to live with the slowness of this query. Pick one ;)
