I'm sure there are -- in fact, I've written code that does that. But
I also don't think that's a reason not to improve the error messages.
If we start worrying about stuff like this, we'll be unable to ever
improve anything.

I don't think it's going to cause a problem for users, provided the
patch is correct. I wondered whether it was always going to pick up
the relation name, e.g. if partitioning is involved, but I didn't
check into it at all, so it may be fine.
