Generally speaking, if you're not sure whether a "relid" variable in the
planner is meant to be a table OID or a rangetable index, you can tell by
noting whether it's declared as type Oid or type int. So I'm also -1 on
any wholesale renaming, especially given the complete lack of an obviously
superior naming convention to change to.
If there are any places where such variables are improperly declared, then
of course we ought to fix that.
