Välkommen!

The patch looks good to me and it looks like a useful change. To make 
sure it is not lost you can add it to the current open commitfest but it 
is also possible that some committer will just pick up the patch directly.

You can add it here: https://commitfest.postgresql.org/

I personally usually use "git format-patch" when submitting to the 
mailing list but this format works just as well if it is just one simple 
patch like this and not a series of multiple patches.

Thanks for the patch!

Andreas

I can commit this tomorrow.

Deprecating md5 came into v18, so even though this is not a
correction, we could backpatch this to v18 for consistency. Anyone
want to make a case for or against?
