Joshua helped test the DAC portion of this patch, and answered a number of my 
questions on the topic, including in-person back in December.  I take your 
point, Robert, on the general principle, but the archives should reflect that 
Joshua did contribute to this specific patch.

Joshua, should we drop the DAC portion for postgres 15 and revisit the issue 
for postgres 16?  I think it's getting late in the development cycle to attempt 
what Tom described upthread, and I'd hate to see the rest of this patch punted.
