Just something like
* Most simple objects are covered by a generic function, the other* still need special processing.
Mainly I was surprised to see collation not supported here, but I didn't
take enough time to understand why that is the case. I will do that
later in the review process.

I should remember better about that as the use case is extensions…

If we really want to do that, I think I would only do that in
AlterObjectNamespace_oid and add an argument to
AlterObjectNamespace_internal, that you already have in
ExecAlterObjectSchemaStmt().
But really, what about just removing that part of your patch instead:
@@ -396,14 +614,23 @@ AlterObjectNamespace_internal(Relation rel, Oid objid, Oid nspOid) * Check for duplicate name

+
+ objtype = get_object_type(&address);
+ check_duplicate_objectname(objtype, nspOid,
+ NameStr(*DatumGetName(name)), NIL);
+ }
It would be much simpler to retain the old-style duplicate object check,
and compared to doing extra cache lookups, it'd still be much cleaner in
my view.
