The way I read the discussion, there is no consensus for getting this 
into PG12, but there does seem to be one for PG13.

I'll push this to the first post-PG12 CF when one appears.  Can we just 
go ahead and create a 2019-07 CF now?  I know we generally discuss this 
at PGCon, but we can always rename it, right?
