I don't think it's as novel as all that --- personally I've always
preferred to tackle large projects incrementally.

Maybe you failed to make the larger picture clear. If you'd gotten the
pghackers list to agree to some plan like "I want to accomplish X, and
to get there I want to do A then B then C", I doubt we'd have rejected a
subsequent patch to do A (assuming it doesn't break anything else, of
course).
