     This is an interesting idea.

     I wonder, however, if a protocol message is the place for it. I
think it belongs to logical decoding (and yes, I know there is no
current support for DDL in logical decoding, but there should be). So I
wouldn't add this specifically to the febe protocol.

     On another topic, I'd look into considering some of the ideas of
the "protocol" designed by the pglogical_output plugin
(http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAMsr+YGc6AYKjsCj0Zfz=X4Aczonq1SfQx9C=hUYUN4j2pKwHA@mail.gmail.com)
for possible inclusion as first-class constructs in a new version of the
protocol.

     Álvaro
