After some off-list discussion with Alvaro, we're thinking the best way
forward is to revert the pg_dump and LOCK TABLE changes for now, and
try again after next week's releases. My proposal about

seems like it needs wider discussion, and there's not really time to
get that done before the wrap. Having found these two bugs in the patch
set doesn't inspire confidence that there aren't others, too.
