I thought there was the idea that the list of objects to drop was to be
acquired before actually doing the deletion; so that the trigger
function could, for instance, get the name of the table being dropped.
I don't see that it works if we only provide
pg_event_trigger_dropped_objects to ddl_command_end events.  Am I
missing something?
