the simplest form of this seems to be carrying checks to both ends of
joins before CE.
so for two partitioned tables "main" and "detail", and query
select * from main m, detail d where m.id_main = d.key_main and m.id_main in (1,7,42)
CE is done based on main.id_main in (1,7,42) and detail.key_mainin
(1,7,42)
Or perhaps this carrying over is already done automatically by postgres
planner before CE ?
