One possible objection to what I wrote above is that it adds a different kind of special case, but in a sneaky way. Perhaps it would be more principled to treat it the same as oid after all. If we do that, it would help to add a comment that we can't treat relnatts like pronangs, since we need more information than what's in each pg_class row. -- John Naylor https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
