Re: Built-in plugin for logical decoding output

Yes. I'm advocating something "built-in" to Postgres. Any or all of those
are likely a great starting point.

As for protobuf, I'm a big advocate -- it is easy to use, fast, extensible,
runs on lots of platforms, and produces very compact output. However it
introduces a few dependencies to the build and that may make it too
difficult for wide options within Postgres.
