No. This is a new feature that wasn't even under consideration,
let alone written, at the time of 9.0 feature freeze. It does not
get into either core or contrib this time around.

Yup, agreed. That was why I put it on github instead of sending a patch
to the list. It was also a quick and dirty hack -- maybe it could be
cleaned up for 9.1, but I'm not sure there was consensus that it was
really needed.

OK, I moved it from 9.0 open items to new features for 9.1.
