Agreed. I realized that last night, and have modified pg_migrator to
test FirstNormalObjectId.
The pg_migrator limitations are now:
pg_migrator will not work if a user column is defined as:
o data type tsquery
o data type 'name' and is not the first column
o a user-defined composite data type
o a user-defined array data type
o a user-defined enum data type
You must drop any such columns and migrate them manually.
