I agree. I thought about doing that at one point, but I didn't quite
have the cycles and I wasn't sure how important it would be. The fact
that we're already hitting cases like this before we've even gone to
beta suggests that it's pretty important. I think it's worth the
extra cycles, even in non-cassert builds. Compared to the overhead of
cajoling the postmaster to fork a new process, the cost of this should
be trivial.
