I don't think it's reachable at the moment, but we do have interest
in allowing joins using the TID value.  See for example
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-01/msg01746.php
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2007-04/msg00231.php
So I wouldn't be in favor of removing it.
