We're getting close to beta3/rc1, and this thread was idle for ~1 month.
I think there's a consensus to change INFO to DEBUG1 in pg12, and then
maybe imlpement something like VERBOSE mode in the future. Objections?
As for the reduction of test coverage, can't we deduce whether a
constraint was used from data in pg_stats or something like that?
