Yeah, your patch is sadly stuck behind the refactoring, and the 
refactoring proved to be harder to do than I initially thought. The 
different code paths for executing CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW are so 
different that it is hard to find a good common interface.

So there is unfortunately little you can do here other than wait for me 
or someone else to do the refactoring as I cannot see your patch getting 
accepted without keeping the existing restrictions on side effects for 
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW.
