That's right. I took care of this in my version, but unfortuneately,
that was ignored in the updated versions. Maybe the comments I added to
the patch were not enough, though.

As I said upthread, we can use the RTE in the range table as-is if the
foreign table is one of the UPDATE subplan partitions or the target
specified in a COPY command. So, I created the patch that way because
that would save cycles. Why not just use that RTE in those cases?

Actually, I also thought the former when creating the patch, but I left
that as-is because I'm not sure that would be really safe;
ExecConstraints looks at the RT index via
GetInsertedColumns/GetUpdatedColumns, so what I thought was: that might
cause unexpected behavior. Anyway, I think that the former is more like
an improvement rather than a fix, so it would be better to leave that
for another patch for PG12?
