Would this be the right path to follow?
Assuming we are allowed to include parameter names into ParseState, we can
match the "non existing" colnames against the list of parameter
names when transformColumnRef (or someware safe in that path). I Think this
way
we at least can parse a function when CreateFunction is called.
If the above is correct to implement then the check should have low
precedence in order to not break
the current functionality (first colnames, then $n params and then parameter
names)
