Oh, right, I completely missed your point and this field in IndexStmt.
Yes it is better to be consistent in this case and to use it. It makes
as well the code easier to follow.
Btw, regarding the new AT routines, I am getting find of them, it
makes easier to follow which command is added where in the command
queues.

Updated patch attached.

Subject: [PATCH] Ensure COMMENT persistency of indexes and constraint with
 ALTER TABLE

When rewriting a table, in some cases indexes and constraints present
on it need to be recreated from scratch, making any existing comment
entry, as known as a description in pg_description, disappear after
ALTER TABLE.

This commit fixes this issue by tracking the existing constraint,
indexes, and combinations of both when running ALTER TABLE and recreate
COMMENT entries when appropriate. A set of regression tests is added
to test all the new code paths added.
