As I said before, this ship has long sailed:
typedef struct PgStat_MsgTabstat
{
PgStat_MsgHdr m_hdr;
Oid m_databaseid;
int m_nentries;
int m_xact_commit;
int m_xact_rollback;
PgStat_Counter m_block_read_time; /* times in microseconds */
PgStat_Counter m_block_write_time;
PgStat_TableEntry m_entry[PGSTAT_NUM_TABENTRIES];
} PgStat_MsgTabstat;

I think in that case we'd have to do the bigger redesign and move "live"
connection stats to backend_status.c...
