Hello, psycopg developer here. Not following the entire thread as it's
quite articulated and not of my direct interest (nor comprehension).
But if you throw at me a few test cases I can make sure psycopg can
parse them much before hstore2 is released.

FYI I have a trigger that highlights me the -hackers messages
mentioning psycopg, so just mentioning it is enough for me to take a
better look. But if you want a more active collaboration just ask.

Thank you,
