Hm.  I wonder if it'd make more sense to consider that an access method is
a property of a tablespace?  That is, all tables in a tablespace have the
same access method, so you don't need to label tables individually?

I don't recall there being huge pushback when we did that in the past,
so I'm fine with it as long as there's an identifiable feature making
it necessary.
