Oops!

drop materialized view if exists mv;

Here's one more.

create table foo(a, b, c) as values(1, 2, 3);
create materialized view mv as select * from foo;
create unique index on mv (a);
create unique index on mv (b);
create unique index on mv (c);
insert into foo values(2, 3, 4);
insert into foo values(3, 4, 5);
refresh materialized view concurrently mv;

test=# refresh materialized view concurrently mv;
ERROR:  syntax error at or near "FROM"

Other than these, I've found index is opened with NoLock, relying on
ExclusiveLock of parent matview, and ALTER INDEX SET TABLESPACE or
something similar can run concurrently, but it is presumably safe.  DROP
INDEX, REINDEX would be blocked by the ExclusiveLock.
