You'll be happy to know that Nigel Andrews just this week submitted a patch to
the 7.4 source which makes "missing from clause" a GUC option that defaults
to true. So in future versions you will be able to set it to false, and
Postgres will throw you a fatal exception instead of assuming which data you
want.
