Sorry, I forgot to add "FOR UPDATE" to the before/after queries.

I imagined the following steps to get the remote query string: (1)
create the remote query string and store it in fdw_private during
postgresGetForeignPlan, (2) extract the string from fdw_private and
store it in erm->ermExtra during postgresBeginForeignScan, and (3)
extract the string from erm->ermExtra in postgresRefetchForeignRow.

IIUC, I think that that behavior is reasonable.

Because erm->markType==ROW_MARK_REFERENCE, I don't think that that
behavior would cause any problem. Maybe I'm missing something, though.
