The parallel between INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE and the trigger's command is
not working well enough, because in the data trigger case we're managing
a single catalog entry with a single command, and in the command trigger
case, in my model at least, we would be managing several catalog entries
per command.
To take an example:
CREATE COMMAND TRIGGER foo AFTER create table, create view; DROP COMMAND TRIGGER foo;
The first command would create two catalog entries, and the second one
would delete the same two entries. It used to work this way in the
patch, then when merging with the new remove object infrastructure I
lost that ability. From the beginning Robert has been saying he didn't
want that behavior, and Tom is now saying the same, IIUC.
So we're back to one command, one catalog entry.
