I'd certainly hope so.. It's certainly not obvious, to me at least,
why a new SM or supporting any of those features would require
breaking pg_upgrade. Perhaps there's something I'm not seeing there,
but it had better be a *really* good reason..

btw, has anyone posted the SM API proposal..? Unfortunately, I think I
had to leave before that was hashed out..

Agreed.
