Make sure the server is down and replace a table's file with the file

recreate dropped columns as well.

So it is possible to slide a file under a table?
How exactly do you do that and keep the OID and filenode references in sync?

The XIDs embedded in the tuples would be the big problem.

Well I always figured doing something like this would be equivalent to rebuilding a car engine while it was running:) I am intrigued by the possibility though. Just wondering if it has actually been done successfully.
