    Change the planner to allow indexscan qualification clauses to use · c186c931
    Tom Lane authored
    nonconsecutive columns of a multicolumn index, as per discussion around
    mid-May (pghackers thread "Best way to scan on-disk bitmaps").  This
    turns out to require only minimal changes in btree, and so far as I can
    see none at all in GiST.  btcostestimate did need some work, but its
    original assumption that index selectivity == heap selectivity was
    quite bogus even before this.
