I've been using textin(record_out(NEW)) in generic partitioning
triggers, and you can find examples of that trick in the wiki, so I
think we have users of that in the field.
Please indeed do consider backpatching!
I don't have an opinion on the opportunity to use a shorter memory

brainpower of the moment allows me to consider.
