I revised the patch to provide 'true' on RangeVarGetRelid().

AlterTable() already open the relation (without missing_ok) in the case when we drop a column, so I don't think we need to acquire relation locks if the supplied column was missing. > There is certainly a more compact way of writing the logic in > get_object_address_typeobj.
