... and UPDATE. It seems we have a consensus to use old row in the row filter
for UPDATEs. I think you meant publication.

I'm afraid this check during decoding has a considerable cost. If we want to
enforce this condition, I suggest that we add it to CREATE PUBLICATION, ALTER
PUBLICATION ... ADD|SET TABLE and ALTER TABLE ... REPLICA IDENTITY. Data are
being constantly modified; schema is not.
