Yeah, possibly.  That would have the advantage of avoiding an ExecProject
step when the SRFs aren't buried, which would certainly be the expected
case.

If you don't want to make ExecInitExpr responsible, then the planner would
have to do something like split_pathtarget_at_srf anyway to decompose the
expressions, no matter which executor representation we use.
