"Whether that is worthy or not is the point of your request and really depends on more input." Correct. And that is what I am looking for. Stating obscure corner cases does not rule out the need for an enhancement. If it did, there would be no point in any enhancement. As of yet, other than this will not work for certain cases, I have not heard any argument where this would cause harm to the PostgreSQL database (performance or security concern) or that this will take any great effort to implement, as I have already disproved that in a previous update.
Making OIDs a default column on user tables was probably not a great effort either. Easy and all user tables got a built in PK, until folks started pushing more data into their database and the OID counter wrapped which had consequences for both user and system tables. Just saying I would want to hear more from the folks that deal with the internals.
