This is a good start - I think with some cleanup this could be
committable, though probably it makes sense to wait until after we get
the security label infrastructure in. I suspect some code cleanup
will be needed; one thing I noticed off the top of my head was that
you didn't follow the usual style for installing hook functions in a
way that can accomodate multiple hooks. See contrib/auto_explain for
an example.
