Right; I certainly have no intention of trying to remove OIDs any time
soon. However, I _will_ be proposing that we set default_with_oids to
false by default in 8.1, per previous discussion on pgsql-hackers. Among
other things, this will mean that CREATE TABLE will not include OIDs by
default: if you want OIDs on a particular table, you can either specify
WITH OIDS explicitly or change the default_with_oids configuration
parameter.
