From folks who hypothetically rely on the existing zeroed inputs. :) Perhaps it's a far-fetched argument, and just to be clear I would not really object to a change of behavior on HEAD for v20, just to see where it goes in 2027.
I'll add this to the commitfest, so that we can circle back on this
once v20 development starts.
I think parallely we can commit Daniel's v2 patch, since
that correctly documents what Postgres has right now, and we'll
know what exactly to change if we decide to go the other way.
