All neat ideas but how about we get something which works in the way being asked for before we start trying to optimize it..? Maybe I'm missing something, but getting all of this infrastructure into place and making sure things aren't done to the plan tree which shouldn't be (or done to all of them if necessary..) is enough that we should get that bit done first and then worry if there are ways we can further improve things..
Right,sorry for digressing.
I think we are in agreement as to what needs to be done (start with a plan, note ideas and replan if necessary). The idea of executor modifying the plan (or personally, even choosing the plan) seems counterintuitive.
Does it also make sense to recalculate the costs from scratch for the replan? It might be, I am just asking.
