 Replying to [comment:5 pramsey]:
 > @robe, I dunno what you think about this one, I don't know what to put
 in doco, and in a perfect world I would go back and just change the
 function so the arguments are directly regclass arguments, but doing so
 now *might* break existing users (of which there area a lot of important
 ones, as every postgis client calls estimated extent) and would also
 involve explicitly dropping the current signature (or it would interpose
 itself on the case where a user calls using text parameters, instead of
 allowing autocasting to work its magic and convert to regclass).

 Beats me.  Do what you think is the best and we'll blame @strk for it
 after.
