Okay, I've committed the fixes that implement this.

Yeah. As of CVS tip, to reshuffle the order of existing triggers you
must (a) do a manual UPDATE pg_trigger SET tgname = 'something' ...
then (b) restart your backend(s), because the relcache code does not
notice that you did that, so it'll keep using the trigger data it
already had loaded. This is pretty ugly. An ALTER TRIGGER command
seems called for if we want to call the TODO item really done.
I haven't got time for that at the moment; any volunteers?
