It depends on the complexity of the relation definition, so adding a
position looks like a good idea to me. Anyway, even if this looks
like an oversight to me, we are post feature freeze for 13 and that's
an improvement, so this looks like material for PG14 to me. Are there
more opinions on the matter?

Please note that you forgot to update the regression test output.
