This cannot be accepted, because it's unsafe to try to apply user
code to a dead tuple. The tuple might reference toast data that's
not there anymore, or in the worst case it might not even match
the table rowtype anymore.
Even without that problem, I would think that whether it is a win or
not would be mighty workload-dependent.
