The examples in these docs start with querying tables, and only afterwards go "oh, it also works with views, if you need more complex filtering".

Right, and from my experience the automatic CRUD endpoints don't deal well with views unless you annotate the view with postgrest-specific comments, which seems rather icky to me.

You can’t just throw complexity at ppl from the first lines of documentation especially when talkin about new ideas
