[Trying to keep it short this time]

I still believe that there is more than one correct answer; it just
depends on what the dba intends.  So I proposed a syntax change for
letting the dba explicitly mark the statements she/he wants to affect
tuple count and oid.

Unfortunately I tried to summarize all other proposals and the mail
got so long that nobody read it to the end :-(
