You can doget_namespace_name(RelationGetNamespace(tg_relation))
Is this sufficiently useful to justify adding an SPI_getrelnamespace()
function? I'm not very clear on the uses for SPI_getrelname(). Most
of the examples we have in contrib/ are using it for error messages,
which don't really need extra qualification IMHO. The ones that are
interpolating the result into queries are for the most part demonstrably
wrong anyway, because they fail to consider the possible need for double
quotes.
