We are *not* doing that. That's a private function and will remain so.
I understand that we need to hide guts of an implementation. But without this the Index Advisor will have to emulate what LookupOpclassInfo() does and that's a lot of code that I am afraid, if emulated by another function in Index Advisor, is more prone to obsolecence than calling IndexSupportInitialize().
