I took a look at this patch today and I think some of these queries
are not quite right. When you do a left join against pg_description,
you have this sort of thing in the WHERE clause:
(d.objsubid IS NULL OR d.objsubid = 0)
I think what you actually want is "AND d.objsubid = 0" in the LEFT
JOIN's "ON" clause. Then you are, in effect, only left joining
against the rows from pg_description where objsubid = 0, and
null-extending if none such is found. I think that's what you want.
I think you can remove the XXX comments, too. Unless I'm
misunderstanding something, using the table to test visibility for
constraints, rules, and triggers seems just right, and opclasses and
opfamilies you have a suitable function available, so those don't seem
problematic. Or am I confused?
