That's my leaning too, after further reflection. Will make it so.

Unless I missed it, it's not in current sources.
I was wondering whether an ALTER TABLE command is really the right way
to approach this. If we had an ALTER-type command, presumably the
implication is that its effects would be global to all backends. But
the uses that I've seen for suspending trigger invocations would be
happier with a local, temporary setting that only affects the current
backend. Any thoughts about that?
