I believe the main problem is that IS NULL and IS NOT NULL are not
operators (they don't have pg_operator entries), and all of the planning
and indexscan execution machinery is designed around operators. Binary
operators, at that.
It's possible that this could be hacked around by creating dummy
pg_operator entries for them, but my bet is that cleaning up the loose
ends and no-longer-valid coding assumptions would be a nontrivial task.
