This is not likely to fly for compatibility reasons.
Can you elaborate?
I am not sure about the compatibility reasons (other than backtesting, or scripts?).
But, personally, as a relatively new person to PG, I was surprised that VERBOSE did not include the buffers.
Could we somehow turn this on? (GUC: VERBOSE_INCLUDES_BUFFERS = yes/no)?
