Agreed.

As promised, I looked into the new set of patches more closely. Can't
see any other significant problems. However, you still need to do a
couple of cosmetic changes.

You now have the same problem with "USING <access method>" and
"USING <am_name>" in v5-0004.

Also, make sure you ran pgindent before creating patches. In v5-0004
there are comments that are too long for one line, and there is a line
with a trailing space:

+ else if (Matches("CREATE", "MATERIALIZED", "VIEW", MatchAny, "AS") ||

Other than that, everything looks fine to me.
