The vote here was 6 yeas and 1 nay (85.7%) with 2 abstentions.
The poll on pgsql-general has gone stale with 19 yeas and 2 nays (90.5%).
My poll on Twitter has ended with 33 yeas and 4 nays (89.2%).

There is a little bit of overlap within those three groups but among the
minuscule percentage of our users that responded, the result is
overwhelmingly in favor of this change.
