That seems much more trouble than it's worth, unless someone can
convince me that this isn't a corner case with little real-world value.

Furthermore, this still doesn't address the worry about whether there
are cases where dropping the trigger calls would be inappropriate.

I propose just having TRUNCATE check for pending triggers on the
target tables, and throw an error if there are any.
