Sorry, I don't know much about mailing list customs - I had to look up what top-posting is. I will behave now ...

I would prefer to keep the complications for when I retrieve the data rather then when I store it.

I could imagine something like this though to create a crosstab as an array, but I am afraid that there is no assurance
thatthe resulting array would contain the values in the same order for each focus: 

tbl(eID, aID, value)

Select eID, array_accum(value) from
(
 (Select Distinct eID from tbl) e
  CROSS JOIN
 (Select Distinct aID from tbl) a
) ea
 LEFT OUTER JOIN
tbl USING (eID, aID)
GROUP BY eID
