I think Felipe has a point here. I don't see any good reason why the driver's
methods can't be a SUPERSET of those specified in the JDBC standard. As long
as there's nothing forcing you to use the non-standard methods, it should be
fine. So, for those who wish to stick to the standard for portability, there
is predictable behavior; and for those who want some of the extra goodies
provided by Postgres, there are options.
