Comment (by strk):

 Important info: this would NOT be easy to make faster than GEOS with only
 using SQL, as the already complex recusrive CTE used to find a ring of
 edges would need to be iterated to find *all* rings, and for faces with a
 lot of holes this would be very very expensive, unless it can be done with
 a single SQL statement
