I've applied this over the "show Heap Fetches in EXPLAIN ANALYZE
output for index-only scans" patch.  It applied and built and passes
installcheck.

I have not done a full review of this, but I want to say that I want
this very much.  Not only can I get the row counts, but also the Heap
Fetches and the output of BUFFERS, without the overhead of timing.  I
haven't looked at contrib aspects of it at all.

Thank you for making this.

Cheers,

Jeff
