Waiting for PostgreSQL 14 – Provide the OR REPLACE option for CREATE TRIGGER.

On 14th of November 2020, Tom Lane committed patch:

Provide the OR REPLACE option for CREATE TRIGGER.
 
This is mostly straightforward.  However, we disallow replacing
constraint triggers or changing the is-constraint property; perhaps
that can be added later, but the complexity versus benefit tradeoff
doesn't look very good.
 
Also, no special thought is taken here for whether replacing an
existing trigger should result in changes to queued-but-not-fired
trigger actions.  We just document that if you're surprised by the
results, too bad, don't do that.  (Note that any such pending trigger
activity would have to be within the current session.)
