Agreed.  I realized that last night, and have modified pg_migrator to
test FirstNormalObjectId.

The pg_migrator limitations are now:

        pg_migrator will not work if a user column is defined as:
        
                o  data type tsquery
                o  data type 'name' and is not the first column
                o  a user-defined composite data type
                o  a user-defined array data type
                o  a user-defined enum data type
        
        You must drop any such columns and migrate them manually.
