AFAIK the only real use for disabling triggers is in connection with
trigger-based replication systems. A view wouldn't be carrying
replication-related triggers anyway, so I think this could certainly
be left out of a first cut.

You aren't saying that you can see some reason why this couldn't be
added later, if wanted, correct?
