This idea is an almost exact duplicate of Heikki Linnakangas' idea for
exactly the same problem.
Given Robert Haas' idea to use the page LSN to indicate the epoch last
changes were made, it allows us to do pretty much this idea in a
slightly easier way.
So this idea withdrawn as a proposal, assuming we can go ahead with
the above mentioned approach.
