We have two related ToDo items below. They are a bit inconsintent,
but they mean we should forbid COMMENT on columns of an index,
or must have full-support of the feature.
Which direction should we go? As for me, forbidding comments on index
columns seems to be a saner way because index can have arbitrary key
names in some cases.
- Forbid COMMENT on columns of an index
Postgres currently allows comments to be placed on the columns of
an index, but pg_dump doesn't handle them and the column names
themselves are implementation-dependent.

- pg_dump / pg_restore: Add dumping of comments on index columns and
composite type columns
