Looks like there may not be enough interest to port any functionality into core. So, just noting that I have withdrawn the patch from CommitFest[1]. Thank you for the good discussions and leanings.

Sami has proposed a patch for pg_hint_plan that goes in the direction of a DisableIndex hint, which is doable even if it requires some work inside the extension code like some refactoring: https://github.com/ossc-db/pg_hint_plan/issues/226
So I cannot say much about this proposal for core, but for pg_hint_plan I'm looking at adding that for the v18 release of the module, which is planned for the end of August/beginning of September.
FWIW, I have been able to merge the patch to add support for this DisableIndex hint in pg_hint_plan. So at least this will give people something to toy with even without this in-core feature. That will be included in next week's release, available in the version of the module compatible with v18. -- Michael
