5ff95e6b8e Add third idea about pulling data from indexes. 
>   A third idea would be for a heap scan to check if all rows are visible
>   and if so set a per-table flag which can be checked by index scans.
>   Any change to the table would have to clear the flag.  To detect
>   changes during the heap scan a counter could be set at the start and
>   checked at the end --- if it is the same, the table has not been
>   modified --- any table change would increment the counter.

< 	o Allow UPDATE/DELETE WHERE CURRENT OF cursor

< 	  This requires using the row ctid to map cursor rows back to the
< 	  original heap row. This become more complicated if WITH HOLD cursors
< 	  are to be supported because WITH HOLD cursors have a copy of the row
< 	  and no FOR UPDATE lock.

<   One possible implementation is to start sequential scans from the lowest

ededa6dfc8 TODO item not needed anymore now that the buffer cache is 
scan-resistant:

<
< * Allow free-behind capability for large sequential scans, perhaps using
<   posix_fadvise()
<
<   Posix_fadvise() can control both sequential/random file caching and
<   free-behind behavior, but it is unclear how the setting affects other
<   backends that also have the file open, and the feature is not supported
<   on all operating systems.
