Hmm, sorry, I missed most of the discussion on CE -- is it used only
in inheritance? Maybe you should add a separate section on
partitioning, referring to the inheritance section where appropiate.
But they are clearly not the same feature.
Also, it will be more clearly separated as we add more partitioning
related features, right?
