I looked over
0001-Add-expression-dependencies-on-composite-type-whole-.patch. That
seems useful independent of the things you have following.
Even though it is presented more as a preparatory change, it appears to
have noticeable user-facing impact, which we should analyze. For
example, in the regression test, the command
alter table tt14t drop column f3;
is now rejected, rightly, but the command
alter table tt14t drop column f3 cascade;
ends up dropping the whole view, which might be a bit surprising. We
don't support dropping columns from views, so there might be no
alternative, but I wonder what else is changing because of this. I
think that might deserve a bit more analysis and perhaps some test cases.

For some reason, the function add_object_address() is singular, and
these new functions are plural Clearly, they take a plural argument, so
your version seems more correct, but I wonder if we should keep that
consistent.

Why shouldn't the function itself also depend on the components of its
return type?
How are argument types handled?
