I don't see how they're not relevant, it's not like they're being
excluded and in fact they show up in the pre-load output. Heck, even if
they *were* excluded, that should be made clear in the documentation
(either be an explicit include list, or saying they're excluded).
Part of what's driving this is making sure we have a plan for future
objects and where they'll go. Perhaps it would be enough to just say
"pre-load is everything in the schema, except things which are faster
done in bulk (eg: indexes, keys)". I don't think it's right to say
pre-load is "only object definitions required to load data" when it
includes functions and ACLs though.
Hopefully my suggestion and these comments will get us to a happy
middle-ground.
Thanks,
Stephen
