I still think removing it would make \df+ output substantially more
readable whenever any PLs are involved. I'm tempted to propose adding
something like \df++ to include the source code for those who really
want that.

However, by my count the vote is two in favor of removing it versus two
against, which is certainly not any kind of consensus, so nothing is going
to happen on that front right away. Meanwhile, we definitely need to get
the "Parallel" column into 9.6, so I'll review and push the rest of the
changes.
