Actually, I hadn't realized that the originally submitted patch had the
test in postgres_fdw only, but we really want it to catch any FDW, so it
needs to be somewhere more general.  The best place I found to put this
test is in make_modifytable ... I searched for some earlier place in the
planner to do it, but couldn't find anything.

So what do people think about this?
 
Good point. I agree that the test should be in a more general place.

I wonder if we can make it earlier in grouping_planner() just before we
add ModifyTablePath.
 
Or maybe we can make it even earlier, when we expand an RTE for a
partitioned table and add result tables to leaf_result_relids.
