Well, maybe the right answer is to address that.  It's clear to me
why that would happen if we store these things as reloptions on the
toast table, but can't they be stored on the parent table?

Backward compatibility might be an issue, but I doubt that there
are enough people using these options that we couldn't get away
with breaking things, if we're unable to find a decent automatic
conversion method.
