I'm not sure that arguing about whether patches are supposed to have
review and discussion before they're committed is a useful way to
spend time either. I think most people here accept that as a
requirement. If you really don't understand the committing a
never-before-posted 3000+-line patch out of the blue three weeks after
the patch submission deadline is out of process, maybe you shouldn't
be committing things at all. I'm glad that you are working on fixing
pg_dump bugs and improving test coverage, but my gladness about that
does not extend to thinking that the processes which other people
follow for their work should be waived for yours. Sorry.
