I don't know why you think that debug_print_plan is meant to do any such
thing; it isn't meant to be useful to end users at all. You could get
the table identity from the relation OID that's in the plan tree, but
the name is not there.
In 8.4 and up there's an "auto_explain" contrib module that is probably
much closer to what you want.
