Yeah, if it would be too heavy to add a timestamp column or two to
pg_class and maybe one or two others, why is it better to add a whole
new table to maintain in parallel -- with it's own primary key,
foreign keys (or similar integrity enforcement mechanism), etc.
Others apparently see a bigger advantage to this than I, but if it's
not something I can just eyeball while I'm looking at the object
definition, it isn't likely to save me much over going to other
sources.

Let's not over-engineer this.
