What kind of a test case would be reasonable there? You mean having a
lot of custom rmgrs?

I was expecting that few people would have more than one custom rmgr
loaded anyway, so a sparse array or hashtable seemed wasteful. If
custom rmgrs become popular we probably need to have a larger ID space
anyway, but it seems like overengineering to do so now.
