Wouldn't it make more sense to _exclude_ those types that should
absolutely not appear there?

I don't really see the point of excluding anything there in the first place
to be honest.

This method won't get called "accidently" with some random object name.
If that is an index (or something else), that's what the user requested.

As indexes and tables share the same namespace there will never be
any ambiguity which object is meant.

Currently the driver also returns columns for types "create type foo as ..."
I do rely on that as well.

Regards
Thomas
