Yea, I can't see anything else right now.

Yea, I was thinking of that as well. But there's code like
htup->t_infomask &= ~(HEAP_XMAX_BITS | HEAP_MOVED);
htup->t_infomask2 &= ~HEAP_KEYS_UPDATED;
if (hot_update)
HeapTupleHeaderSetHotUpdated(htup);
else
HeapTupleHeaderClearHotUpdated(htup);
fix_infomask_from_infobits(xlrec->old_infobits_set, &htup->t_infomask,
&htup->t_infomask2);
so I'd rather only clean this up in master.
