The names of schemas in which to find functions, tables, views, triggers, etc. etc. I have lots of stuff like this:
       SELECT true         FROM pg_catalog.pg_namespace n         JOIN pg_catalog.pg_class c ON n.oid = c.relnamespace        WHERE c.relkind = $1          AND n.nspname = $2          AND c.relname = $3

I'd love to instead do something like:
       SELECT true         FROM pg_catalog.pg_class c        WHERE c.relkind = $1          AND c.relnamespace::regschema = $2          AND c.relname = $3

Best,
