I'm not sure dump-and-restore would preserve any properties of
anything in pg_catalog.
Anyway, I think we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves here. The
questions I need answers to right now are:
- What should we call dsm_unkeep_mapping, if not that?
- Are there remaining complaints about patch #3?
- How can I get somebody to review patch #4?
- Does anyone have a tangible suggestion for how to reduce the code
duplication in patch #6?
The question of where pg_background should ultimately live does
matter, but the answer will be "the -hackers mailing list archives"
unless we can get agreement on the prerequisite patches.
