Does this imply SQL SYNTAX like:
SHOW CREATE TABLE <table_name>
[ INCLUDING { ALL | INDEXES | SEQUENCES | ??? }]
[EXCLUDING { PK | FK | COMMENTS | STORAGE | } ]
[FOR {V11 | V12 | V13 | V14 | V15 }] ??
?
Personally, I would expect a function, like pg_get_tabledef(oid), to match the other pg_get_*def functions instead of overloading SHOW. To me, this also argues that we shouldn't include indexes because we already have a pg_get_indexdef function.

In fact, making it a function will make my life easier for testing, that's for certain. I don't need to involve the parser,etc. Others can help with that after the function works.
