Thanks!

We don't build statement for cascading so we don't fire command
triggers. The user view is that there was no drop command on the sub
objects, only on the main one.
I know it's not ideal, but that's a limit we have to bite for 9.2
unfortunately.

As you say, about nothing else does. I think that's a work for another
patch.

Fixed.

Right, done.

I've fixed that code.

Some call sites need to be able to call those functions a dynamic number
of times. I could add a reset boolean parameter that would mostly be
true in all call site and false in two of them (RemoveObjects,
RemoveRelations), and add a new function to just reset the memory
context then.
Or maybe you have a better idea about the ideal API here?

I'm surprised, here's an excerpt from the added regression tests:
alter function notfun(int) set schema cmd;
NOTICE: snitch: BEFORE any ALTER FUNCTION
NOTICE: snitch: BEFORE ALTER FUNCTION public notfun
NOTICE: snitch: AFTER ALTER FUNCTION cmd notfun
NOTICE: snitch: AFTER any ALTER FUNCTION

User mapping and casts object names are composite, and I don't know how
to represent that in a single text structure.

Seems so, cleaned out.
