Comment:

 I'm deferring this, since I hate all operators except && and can't believe
 anyone uses them. I think we have problems fundamentally with the '='
 operator, since people have such strong internalized notions of what it
 means. BTW, the difference between = and ~= is what opclass they are
 defined for. = is defined on the btree and ~= on the gist index.
