And, hearing no objections, done.

Here's the last patch back, rebased over that renaming. Although I
think that Andres (and Tom) are probably right that there's room for
improvement here, I currently don't see a way around the issues I
wrote about in http://postgr.es/m/CA+Tgmoa0zFcaCpOJCsSpOLLGpzTVfSyvcVB-USS8YoKzMO51Yw@mail.gmail.com
-- so not quite sure where to go next. Hopefully Andres or someone
else will give me a quick whack with the cluebat if I'm missing
something obvious.
