This thread has been idle for 6 months now, so I have marked it as
returned with feedback as of what looks like a lack of activity. I
have looked at what's been proposed, and I am not really sure if the
direction taken is correct, though there may be a potential gain in
consolidating the multi-insert path within the table AM set of
callbacks.
