Has anybody worked on making the pgbench internal functions available
as extensions ?
I mean the ones from " Built-In Functions" [*]
Some of these are probably available in other extensions or even as
builtins but having things like hash_fnv1a() or random_zipfian() which
are guaranteed to have exact same behaviour as the ones in bundled
pgbench would enable more work to be pushed to database and generally
resu;lt in better interoperability for tests.
