This is why the scheme as implemented doesn't really make sense to me. It'd be much easier to use if we had a shared hashtable with the identifiers than what's been merged now. In plenty of cases it's not realistic for an extension library to run in each backend, while still needing to wait for things. Greetings, Andres Freund
