Wouldn't
ALTER [OBJECT] RENAME TO [schema.][name]
be a better?
After all, this is essentially a rename operation,
so maybe it is better to extend existing syntax...
5WD-02-Foundation-2003-09.pdf doesn't seem
to specify any renaming with ALTER TABLE...

What about:
ALTER [OBJECT] RENAME TO [schema.]name [CASCADE]
This has somewhat less new syntax.
CASCADE would also move dependant objects.
Perhaps trigger functions should not be moved, since it
is not really obvious how to do this right.
Warning should be issued in this case.

They should all be moved. Remember nasties like indexes should be moved
as well as toast tables.
Oh, i thought toast tables should live in the pg_toast namespace?
Oh yes, you're probably right. Indexes should move though I think?
