Ideally, we should point out the specific column that faced the conversion problem and report it, instead of saying the whole row reference conversion caused the problem. But that may be too difficult.
I think so too.
Or at least the error message should read "whole row reference of foreign table ft1".
OK, attached is an updated version of the patch, which uses "whole-row reference", not "wholerow".
The wording "column "whole-row reference ..." doesn't look good. Whole-row reference is not a column. The error context itself should be "whole row reference for foreign table ft1".
