Looks new: + RELOPT_KIND_INDEX = RELOPT_KIND_BTREE|RELOPT_KIND_HASH|RELOPT_KIND_GIN|RELOPT_KIND_SPGIST, there aren't any other "for all indexes" type options, so the whole category didn't exist before. It also strikes me as a really bad idea, even if RELOPT_KIND_GIST wouldn't have been omitted: It breaks index am extensibility. Greetings, Andres Freund
