Where would be an easy place to find all the renamed functions?

My experience with fts is limited to one project, and I just used all 
the default dictionaries, so I've never even played with any of that.

That being said, I'd be happy to write up what I can (and I can try to 
put together a list of the renamed functions).

Is there any chance there is an easier way to backup/restore?  On one 
hand, its not too bad, and it'll only be once (correct?).  Now that fts 
is in core future backup/restores will work, right?  I think it's 
analogous to telling someone they are updating from tsearch2 to 
tsearch3, and it might be a little more painful than just a backup/restore.

On the other hand I think a backup/restore will pollute the new db with 
a bunch of functions and types that wont ever be used, so it's so much 
cleaner to build it by hand.

Are there other fts users that might have opinions on that?
