I'm not sure it's acceptable to cause other sessions to raise errors if
they query the table being repacked (or a table repacked recently).
That sounds extremely unpleasant. Imagine a long-running transactions
that runs enormous queries for many hours or even days, being killed
near the end because some DBA decided to run REPACK on a table.
