Are you stating that there is functionality now in the core (of versions
greater than 1.13) that implements the Nuke function? Or is there a newer
extension (name?) that works only on versions that do not include 1.13?

Yes, that was the problem. The pgAdmin utility was cramming together the column
name and its type. So, the substance of this bug ticket now rests on whether
the Nuke extension is supported at all, is supported only for more recent
versions of MW than 1.13 or whether 1.13 code is still available.

In all cases, I think the extension description page needs to be updated. In
the first case, a deprecated/no support banner would be helpful. In the second
case the download options should be modified to eliminate 1.13 and lower. In
the third case, then the ticket describes a legitimate problem.
