Looking at the docs:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/catalogs.html
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/views-overview.html
it is clear this needs to be fixed, and I would be glad to do it soon.
I don't need a submitted patch.
My only question is whether we apply this to head, head & PG 15, or all
branches? I think the URLs will change with this adjustment so we might
want to do only head & PG 15.
There are two reasons this didn't get addressed earlier. First, I have
been focusing on some larger community issues the past few months, and I
now see people are complaining some of these issues are being ignored
--- I need to refocus on those smaller issues. Second, the original
email thread had no email subject, which tends to cause it to get
ignored and to sometimes be threaded with other unrelated emails that
also have no subject line.
