I will do some research about this.

Thanks for the changes and comments.

Attach the V67 patch set which address the above comments.

The new version patch also includes:
- Some code comments update suggested by Peter [1] and Greg [2]
- Move the initialization of cached slot into a separate function because we now
  use the cached slot even if there is no filter.
- Remove an unused parameter in pgoutput_row_filter_init.
- Improve the memory context initialization of row filter.
- Fix some tab-complete bugs (fix provided by Peter)
