Well, we have a new issue that has made the problem much worse (ie ALTER
SCHEMA RENAME), and these problems are not going to get any easier to
solve later.  I think we should agree on something and do it.

Ripping out ALTER SCHEMA RENAME is not a solution unless you have a path
to a solution later with more work.  So far there has been nothing in
the way of "here is a proposal that will work but it'll take too much
time to implement for 8.1".  Eventually we are going to have to settle
on one of the lesser evils, so why not now?
