Missed the start of this thread. A while back I had intended to add WITH INDEXES to CREATE TABLE LIKE. That would let you create a tale LIKE parent WITH CONSTRAINTS WITH INDEXES and get pretty much a perfect table ready for adding to the inheritance structure.
Yeah, this one aims to do pretty much the above as part of the auto creation of the inheritance-based partitions.
And to add, maybe if there is consensus/demand for the WITH INDEXES idea mentioned above too, I could work on it as well.
