I agree that a lot of the features you list are desirable. Like many open source projects, contributors work on features they’re interested in or paid to work on. It’s likely that you could find developers who could be motivated to realign their priorities if properly incentivized.

I agree, still amazes me how good Postgres is for free, coming from Microsoft partner world of insane SQL Enterprise per core licensing. How much incentive would you guess is required, to get auto incremental mat view refresh?

It’s likely developer dependent. You could reach out to one of the consultancies, or post an email to one of the mailing lists, though I’m not sure which one. Starting with -general would be s safe bet, and including a request for recommendation for a better list would likely get you sorted.

What's your use case for incremental materialized view refresh? Are you using materialized views within a single database/instance, or across links between databases?
