That's all fine and dandy, as long as the deparser is able to notice
when it's going to emit an invalid qualification, and spits out NULL
instead (does your code handle that case?). If it cannot, then we would
cause a serious regression -- dblink fails to work just because the
query happens to use a construct that does not lend itself to proper
deparsing.
