I agree. I can get this into shape for commit today.

Does anybody object to my proceeding with committing the patch on the
master branch/putting it in Postgres 18?  (FWIW I could probably fit
the new field into some BTScanPosData alignment padding, but I don't
favor back patching.)

I consider my patch to be low risk. There's a kind of symmetry to how
things work with the patch in place, which IMV makes things simpler.
