Yeah, that would be a good idea but I think instead of changing get_altertable_subcmdtypes(), can we have a new function say get_altertable_subcmdinfo() that returns additional information from address. The other alternative could be that instead of returning the address as a string, we can return some fields as a set of records (one row for each subcommand) as we do in pg_event_trigger_ddl_commands(). -- With Regards, Amit Kapila.
