Yes, column-based storage is needed. However, when we drop tables,
dangling stat settings might remain. I want core-support for the module,
for example, "TRIGGER ON DROP TABLE" or some drop-relation-hooks.

There might be another approach that we add pg_attribute.attoptions for
generic column-based options, like pg_class.reloptions.

Which approach is better, or something else?
