For DDL deparsing purposes, it seems important that the affected object
address can be reproduced somehow.  I think pg_get_object_address()
should be considered, as well as the object_address test.

If we do as you propose, we would have to deparse
COMMENT ON CURRENT DATABASE IS 'foo'
as
  COMMENT ON DATABASE whatever_the_name_is IS 'foo'

which is not a fatal objection but doesn't seem all that great.
