Considering that this patch was submitted at the last minute and isn't
even complete, I can't see this getting into v10. But that doesn't
mean we can't talk about it. I'm curious to hear other opinions on
whether we should have this feature. On the point mentioned above, I
don't think adding a partition should move tuples, necessarily; seems
like it would be good enough - maybe better - for it to fail if there
are any that would need to be moved.
