yikes..  not to get philosophical or anything, but, when it comes down to
it, I'd prefer to have the ability to do more than what some programmer
thinks I'll need to do, just for those times when I want to do something
weird (which happens often for me at least).  The compile time options
lead me to believe that all the flashy features can be turned off for more
minimal implimentations if desired, quite easily.  It's hard to get around
"well, hmm, we didn't program potentially-useful-option Foo in because it
didn't seem absolutely necessary."

That said, there is a fine line between possibly useful and completely
useless, and it's no secret that development time is not an abundant
resource for pg at the moment.  That's what plugins are for anyways :)
