I hope what I've done about delta relations will be mostly irrelevant
given your patch (which I've not looked at in detail), but just FYI,
I've built an alternate, all-SQL-coded materialized view system that
captures deltas between refreshes and deltas from direct DMLs of the
materialized view:

https://github.com/twosigma/postgresql-contrib/blob/master/pseudo_mat_views.sql

There are some good ideas there, IMO, even if that implementation were
useless because of your patch.

Incidentally, it's really nice that PG has some "higher order" SQL
features that make this sort of thing easier. In particular, here, row
values and record types, and being able to refer to a table as a column
of the table's record type.
