+1 for this enhancement. Here are few comments for the patch:
- INTO <replaceable class="parameter">partition_name</replaceable>
+ INTO <replaceable
class="parameter">partition_name</replaceable> [ TABLESPACE
tablespace_name ]
tablespace_name should be wrapped in the <replaceable> tag, like partition_name.

static Relation
-createPartitionTable(RangeVar *newPartName, Relation modelRel,
- AlterTableUtilityContext *context)
+createPartitionTable(RangeVar *newPartName, char *tablespacename,
+
The comment should mention the tablespace setting in the same way it
mentions the access method.

This change should be a separate patch since it makes sense
independently of your patch. Also, the comments for the "name"
variable in the same structure need to be updated.

This seems problematic to me. The index should be in the same
tablespace as the table.
