It is too bad they’re not backporting the “turn off the optimization that 
breaks everyone’s queries” feature.  

I was going to say that `OFFSET 0` might be pretty stable; but upon reflection, 
passing in a zero offset to a query probably isn’t actually that rare (e.g., 
the first page of search results).  It actually is the kind of thing someone 
might come along and decide to optimize, taking a way yet another fence 
everyone was using.

Anyway, what can you do.
