Hi.
Attached patch solve this problem.
This patch adds table_beginscan_tid() and call it in TidListEval()
instead of table_beginscan().
table_beginscan_tid() is the same as table_beginscan() but do not set
SO_TYPE_SEQSCAN to flags.
Although I'm not sure this behavior is really problem or not,
it seems to me that previous behavior is more prefer.
Is it worth to apply to HEAD and v12 branch ?
Best regards,
