Hi!
We found another way to address the issue. It could be better suited for
current path selection model:
Instead of keeping all parameterized foreign paths, we could
re-parameterize the ones that were left after add_path() domination, as
is already done with other path types. This requires a new FDW interface
function, but allows to keep current path domination logic and build
additional foreign paths only when they are truly required, like in
parametrized NestLoop.
The first attached patch implements path reparameterization in
postgres_fwd and adds it to reparameterize_path().
The second patch is optional, it adds a cache for parameterized paths in
postgres_fdw, so there is no excessive roundtrip for remote estimate
EXPLAIN for paths that have already been costed and rejected.
