We are investigating the matter on several fronts.
We've seen that Postgres (9.2.3) creates ExclusiveLock even with simple
SELECT * From myschema.mytable.

You mean like this:

postgres=# create table mytable(i int4);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# begin;
BEGIN
postgres=# select * from mytable;
 i
---
(0 rows)

postgres=# select * from pg_locks;

That last ExclusiveLock is on the transactions virtual transactaction ID. Not on the table. There is no change from previous versions here.
