I really wish I could have done more to help with this, but I didn't
do enough soon enough. Regrettably, I think that the patch just isn't
ready. For example, the way that expression indexes just aren't
handled is a cause for concern, as is the general way in which high
keys are modified during index builds. Interactions with logical
decoding are also a concern; there could be significant issues there,
but that analysis just didn't happen. I had significant
misunderstandings about the patch as recently as this week.

This should be reverted.
