Hm, yeah. The problem is that ATExecAlterColumnType() rebuilds all the
affected indexes from scratch, and it isn't doing anything about copying
their comments to the new objects (either comments on the constraints, or
comments directly on the indexes).
The least painful way to fix it might be to charter ATPostAlterTypeCleanup
to create COMMENT commands and add those to the appropriate work queue,
rather than complicating the data structure initially emitted by
ATExecAlterColumnType. But it'd still be a fair amount of new code I'm
afraid.
Not planning to fix this personally, but maybe someone else would like to
take it up.
