If no other people required it again, I don't think this module should
be kept in core and also I'm not favor to push ctidscan to v9.6 development
cycle. It intends to demonstrate custom-scan interface, however, it is
not certain an example always needs to be in-core.

FWIW, having TIDGreaterOperator would be very useful for anyone trying to un-bloat a table, so it'd be nice if this was at least available as a PGXN extension.
