It's (probably) theoretically possible, if we replace reltriggers with a
bool that acts more like relhasindex, ie it's a hint to go look in
pg_triggers. My point was just that you can't arbitrarily decide that
some operation needs only a given strength of lock if you are not up to
speed on these sorts of details.
