+= New Features
+
+* Dataset#select_prepend has been added for prepending to the
+ currently selected columns:
+
+ DB[:table].select_prepend(:column)
+ # SELECT column, table.*
+
+ As not all databases support "SELECT column, *", select_prepend
+ qualifies wildcard selections to all tables referenced in the
+ query.
+
+ The only reason to use select_prepend is if you want the hashes
+ returned by Sequel to be in a specific order. Otherwise, it is
+ better to use select_append.
+
+* On PostgreSQL, Sequel now supports an :unlogged_tables_default
+ Database option, which will default created tables to be UNLOGGED.
+ This can be useful to speedup testing in some cases, but it should
+ never be used in cases where data integrity is important.
+
+= Other Improvements
+
+* On PostgreSQL, Database#create_or_replace_view now supports the
+ :materialized option. This allows for dropping an existing
+ materialized view and creating a new one with the same name
+ (PostgreSQL does not have native support for replacing materialized
+ views).
