needto logically identify the relfilenode and then copy it block by block, so maybe this approach will not make anyone
unhappybecause it is not any worse than the current system.
So, I agree. If we can't get agreement on this approach, then we can
do that, and as you say, it's no worse than what we are doing now. But
I am just trying to lay out my view of why I think that's not as good
as this.
