Is there any reason why \dt+ doesn't include toast and index size of a table ?
I can understand index, but toast ?

now I know it boils down to pg_relation_size at the end of the day,
cos that's what psql uses. But please tell me guys, that I am not the
only one who would expect true size of table in \dt+ ?
At the end of the day, postgresql 'cheats' behind scenes with toast,
and avid user shouldn't really need to account for that!.

Btw, pgAdmin is able to display that information properly.
