I have some feedback on "Allow NOT NULL to be added to columns without
requiring a table rewrite". I suggest that this be phrased as "Avoid a
table rewrite when ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN sets a default value for a
column". Referencing the fact that Postgres was previously able to do
this with a NULL default doesn't seem to add anything.
