I use postgreSQL 9.1. In my database there is a table which looks like

id | ... | values
-----------------------
1  | ... | {1,2,3}
2  | ... | {}

Answer 1

select id,
    unnest (
        "values"
        ||
        (array[null]::integer[])[1:(array_upper("values", 1) is null)::integer]
    )
from "table"
