At least, this is the present situation. I expect such
things to become configurable on a per-table basis.

Time to market (1), 10%-90% rule (2), and all that (3).

(1) Completely finishing Postfix before release would have taken
too much time. Therefore the released code is work in progress.

(2) In some cases, 90% of a problem can be solved with 10% of the
code that makes up a complete system.

(3) There was a time when a system could be complete. That was when
systems changed very little over time. That is a very long time ago.
