Comment (by robe):

 Yah I think a ST_FilterHolesByArea, you can always make the Area value
 optional and if no area value is passed in, it would assume all holes
 should be filtered.

 Yah ST_RemoveSmallParts  is not quite the same thing as it would remove
 small polygons that don't even have holes and I'd hate to add another
 argument to that function (saying true/false holes only), at that point
 creating a whole new function makes more sense to me and is clearer in
 intent.
