Perhaps an appropriate thing to do is separate out the representation
change from the other new features, and apply just the latter for now.
Or maybe we should think about having two versions of hstore. This
is all tied up in the problem of having a decent module infrastructure
(which I hope somebody is working on for 8.5). I don't know where
we're going to end up for 8.5, but I'm disinclined to let a fairly
minor contrib feature improvement break upgrade-compatibility before
we've even really started the cycle.
I can just have pg_migrator detect hstore and require it be removed
before upgrading; we did that already for 8.3 to 8.4 and I am assuming
we will continue to have cases there pg_migrator just will not work.
The more things you exclude the less useful the tool will be. I'm
already fairly sure it will be unusable for all or almost all my clients
who use 8.3.
