Re: proposal: function parse_ident

I would have immediate use for this. So often a function is written with a table name as a parameter and it's not immediately clear if the schema is to be parsed out of the string, prescribed, or a separate parameter...in which case the function signature now has a clumsy optional schema parameter somewhere. I've written this bit of code probably five times now, let's make it a solved problem.

text[] return seems most sensible. While I can see the use for a record output, it wouldn't be used as often.
