I did that deliberately to make sure I'd catch all the dependencies.
If you like we can argue about whether to undo that aspect of the
patch --- it's surely not very critical --- but my vision of the future
path of development is that the text variant will go away entirely.
So I didn't like the idea of having "nextval" and "nextval_oid";
seems like that gives pride of place to the wrong thing.
