It seems to me that there is no difference in behavior between
inheritance-based and declarative partitioning as far as statement-level
triggers are concerned (at least currently). In both the cases, we fire
statement-level triggers only for the table specified in the command.
Maybe, we will fix things someday so that statement-level triggers will be
fired for all the tables in a inheritance hierarchy when the root parent
is updated or deleted, but that's currently not true. We may never
implement that behavior for declarative partitioned tables though, so
there will be a difference if and when we implement the former.
Am I missing something?

OK, done. It took a bit more work than I thought.
Updated patch attached.
Thanks,
