I though about this design more time. I see following disadvantages1. we are not able to check all possible variants of extended query. If there will be some custom error, then we will raise pretty ugly error messages,
Yes, that's an inevitable shortcoming. psql is not backend and can't perform all the required checks on its side...
2. I don't thing so using "Size" as table size in human readable format and "size" as table size in raw format is intuitive, but any change of "Size" can introduce some (less probability compatibility issues),
Oh, this is surprisingly hard problem which probably have only imperative solution...
3. What queries will contains size calculations? It is not cheap - requires AccessShareLock
Sorry, I didn't understand this point. Yes, size calculation requires locking, but that is already true for \dt+ and \l+. Why this is disadvantage of proposed approach?
