I've written a patch to begin to make this change and sent it into -hackers for comments, thread is here: https://postgr.es/m/20201120211304.GG16415@tamriel.snowman.net Naturally, it won't make sense to make a change to the back branches until the change has been agreed to and committed for v14. Thanks, Stephen
