Well, just for example, that doesn't document the changes you made to
the opclass infrastructure, and the reasons for those decisions.
Actually, I've been working on an email on that topic but haven't
gotten around to finishing it. There's some description of the
overall goal of the feature but not much about how you got there. Is
it enough to review? Perhaps, but it would certainly be nice to have
some more discussion of the overall design. IMHO, anyway.
