Right, that's necessary. See the patch I just sent.

But why would this be necessary / a good idea? Even if we decided it
were, it seems like it'd end up being quite invasive.  But I doubt it's
a good plan, because relcache entries want / need to be updated
differently in the transaction that does the changes (as it needs to see
the effect of catalog changes before commit) than other sessions (which
only should see them after commit).
