+1. The proposed changes will be beneficial in the long term. They
will affect existing extensions. However, the scale of the problem
seems to be exaggerated.

I can confirm that the patch passes installcheck-world. After some
searching through the code, I was unable to identify any places where
the logic will break. Although this only proves my inattention, the
easiest way to make any further progress seems to apply the patch.
