Sorry, wasn't very clear about what it does:

select * from mytable t left join joinme j on t.id = j.foreign_id and
t.tableoid = j.foreign_oid;

I use it for 'PostIt note' type data that I want to be able to stick to
any other row in the DB. Keeping the referential integrity is a bit of
extra work, but I'm working on it :)

If you're going the other way, yes, you'll need to find out what tables
are joined to your postit first. But that's easy with:

select foreign_oid::regclass from joinme where...

But back to my original question: are those tableoid's going to suddenly
wrap around?
