Yes, maybe a good idea to mention that partitioned table result relations
are not handled here.
Actually, I've been wondering if this patch (0001) shouldn't get rid of
inheritance_planner altogether and implement the new approach for *all*
inheritance sets, not just partitioned tables, but haven't spent much time
on that idea yet.

Okay, I will try to add more explanatory comments here and there in the
next version I will post later this week.
