#3844: b-tree support for strict equality test and spatially adjacent ordering
-------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  pramsey      |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  enhancement  |     Status:  new
 Priority:  critical     |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.4.0
Component:  postgis      |    Version:  trunk
 Keywords:               |
-------------------------+---------------------------
 Change the = operator to test the binary geometry representations
 directly, to allow more "rational" GROUP BY behavior on geometry. Also
 enhance the <> operators to sort based on a rough morton key to put rows
 ordered by geometry columns into a rough "things near in the list are near
 in space" ordering.
