Yes. I intend to put most of this table-caching feature on the custom-scan
APIs set, even though it may take additional hooks due to its nature,
independent from planner and executor structure.
So, are you thinking it is a feasible approach to focus on custom-scan
APIs during the upcoming CF3, then table-caching feature as use-case
of this APIs on CF4?
