Comment(by strk):

 Another idea, which avoids to add yet another signature, could be
 enhancing ST_MakeLine to also accept line inputs. You could then mix
 points and lines in a chain of components for a line.
 In this case the function would always fill the gaps between lines, for
 consistency with what it already does with points. Also it would not drop
 the duplicate vertex at the sewing point.
