having used Oracle for many years, I cannot think of a project in which
I did not use rownum, including within procedures and triggers and
subqueries. can usually be easily done - loop within loop - but more
easily and bugfree as column within select.
by "wart" do you mean aesthetically or code-wise? naively, it seems
like pg is already keeping a row counter to implement limit.
