Launchpad can switch immediately to GIN indexes for a big speed improvement if this is fixed in PostgreSQL.

Launchpad ideally should detect if a query requires a full scan and abort the search gracefully. This would also be a work around to the edge case GIN doesn't support, and allow us to switch index types for a big speed improvement. This approach is discussed in Bug 119780.
