Now, this patch looks good for me. It applies cleanly, builds cleanly, passes regression tests, new functionality is covered by regression tests. Code is OK for me and docs too. I'm marking this patch as "Ready for committer". BTW, authors field in the commitfest app is empty (https://commitfest.postgresql.org/15/1302/). Please, put your name there. I hope this patch will be committed during 2017-11 commitfest. Be ready to rebase this patch if needed.
