Yeah, and it was forked into other long discussion thread [1] that explain
the reasons to patch got rejected.

IMHO we need a way (maybe at SQL level too) to define and manipulate the
reloptions, and this way should cover all database objects. It isn't a
simple patch because we'll need introduce new catalogs, refactor and
rewrite a lot of code... but it should be a better way to do it. Anyway we
can start with your approach and grow it in small pieces. I have a lot of
ideas about it so I'm glad to discuss it if you want.
