I think so too.

OK

To allow async execution in a bit more cases, I modified the patch a
bit further: a ProjectionPath put directly above an async-capable
ForeignPath would also be considered async-capable as ForeignScan can
project and no separate Result is needed in that case, so I modified
mark_async_capable_plan() as such, and added test cases to the
postgres_fdw regression test.  Attached is an updated version of the
patch.

Thanks for the review!
