Comment(by pracine):

 The question now is: Is what strk looking for fulfilled by
 ST_SummaryStats? If yes why creating a new function? I'm wondering if it's
 not the ST_Summary result that should become more like the one provided by
 ST_SummaryStats: a multiple, typed, column result splittable on many
 columns with the "(result).*" syntax. What is the need for this verbose,
 ugly, human-only readable result? Seems to me that a result like the one
 provided by ST_SummaryStat is much more useful for any subsequent
 treatment (human or machine).
